Update April 17, 2020We are working intensively on ramp up planning. Protecting the health of our employees is here the top priority. We adopted an extensive package of measures – we work in small teams to adjust production plants, to be able to keep distances on the shop floor or – according to the requirements of this situation – to implement highest hygiene standards. The comprehensive protective measures at our locations were further intensified, all operating processes at MAHLE are subject to strict safety precautions.
Our teams are also working relentlessly to restore stability in the supply chains. This will be a key factor in ramping up production. I know these are challenging times for all of us. The end of this global crisis is not yet in sight. But we act sensibly and decisively by gradually ramping up production to meet the needs of automotive manufacturers. I can assure you that we will deliver accordingly. We remain the reliable partner that we are known and valued for. We will contribute to getting our industry back on track.
Let's continue to stick together. My thanks – and that of my management board colleagues – goes to all employees who contribute to coping with this crisis worldwide.
