Crane and construction equipment manufacturer Liebherr has issued a statement in response to the impact of the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic worldwide.

“All Liebherr companies worldwide are reacting flexibly according to the situation on site to protect their employees while maintaining key business processes as effectively as possible. They are undertaking various measures, including carrying out extensive hygiene management, re-organising areas of production to prevent the spread of infection, issuing guidelines on working from home and generally using remote forms of working instead of face-to-face meetings.

Bottlenecks in regions and countries severely affected by the coronavirus are currently the prime cause of problems in the supply chain. This has resulted in the temporary shutdown of certain factories or an adjustment in production capacities.”

More details had been requested at the time of writing.
