  • We have pinned up additional notices throughout the factory and offices to remind people to take extra steps for hygiene such as hand washing and sanitising on a regular basis.
  • This includes asking any visitors to the building to complete the health screen below in addition to hand washing before and after they have completed their visit.
  • We have restricted the number of visitors to our factory and offices, allowing business critical visits only.
  • We are monitoring our employees and contractors body temperatures with a non-contact thermometer to ensure that personnel with a temperature above 38oC self-isolate.
    • Moving certain staff into empty offices where the distance between them is under the 2m guideline.
    • Allowed several staff to work from home via VPN.We have split our staff wherever possible to reduce the risk of contamination between them by:
    • Limited the movement of people between departments wherever possible.
  • We have employed additional cleaning staff to disinfect any shared contact surfaces (handrails, door handles, vending machines, etc) daily or twice daily.
