STS Group AG: European sites resume production after Covid-19 related plant closure / Chinese plants with high capacity utilization
Hallbergmoos/Munich , April 29, 2020. STS Group AG (ISIN: DE000A1TNU68 ; sts.group ), the global system supplier for the automotive and commercial vehicle industry, listed in the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, has started to resume the production of its European plants this week. The STS plants in China resumed production already in March and are currently producing again at the same high level prior to the plant closure. The European plants are located in Germany, France and Italy. In mid March, STS Group AG had reacted to the short-term plant closures of automotive manufacturers due to COVID-19 and immediately shut down its production.
STS is adapting the production in the above mentioned plants in constant coordination with its customers. The focus of the restart is, on the one hand, to guarantee the supply chain and on the other, to protect STS employees. The Group has therefore developed measures for ensuring maximum health protection in close cooperation with local employee representatives and in accordance with authorities’ knowledge. These are implemented systematically at all STS Group sites.
The short-time work already introduced in mid March, the implementation and utilization of home office opportunities and the examination of government aid programs underline the Group’s extensive efforts to ensure the short and long-term success of the company.
“In this extraordinary situation, it is important to act cautiously and to adapt quickly and flexibly to ever-changing conditions. Our measures protect the health of our employees and at the same time ensure that production is resumed,” says STS Group AG CEO Andreas Becker.
