International. James Furlong, President of Belimo Americas, told all his clients, through a letter, how the company has been performing these days in which the COVID-19 pandemic is expanding.
"Belimo Americas is currently operating and we maintain safety as our top priority. We have taken aggressive steps to provide a safe working environment for our employees. Our office and customer support functions are primarily staffed by employees who work from home and run smoothly. All of our plants and distribution centers in Danbury, Sparks, Mississauga and Sao Paulo continue to operate without interruption. Danbury and Sparks are currently running with balanced two-shift operations to allow social distancing to be practiced to the greatest extent possible."
Furlong added that "we have an active risk management process for our supply chain. Healthy levels of inventory are helping us compensate for the minor disruptions we are experiencing from suppliers. If current conditions remain stable, we do not expect it to experience any overall increase in product lead times or availability."
