Khatod confirms full activity and regular operations

March 25, 2020

Khatod Optoelectronic would like to inform that all company activities are regularly operational in compliance with the Decree of the Italian PM of March 22, 2020, containing the anti-COVID-19 measures adopted by the Italian Government, according to the directives from WHO.

The production capacity has been increased in order to meet the growing market demand and will continue regularly in the coming weeks. We are currently working over 3 daily shifts. Goods movement has no restrictions, both in Europe and in international territories, and logistics are fully operational, as you can check at the sites of the major worldwide carriers (FedEx, DHL, UPS, GLS, DB Schenker etc.)

Contact with goods does not expose people to the risk of infection, since COVID-19 is not able to survive on surfaces for a long time, as stated by WHO. Please read at the World Health Organization link: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public/myth-busters.

Khatod staff employed in the offices is working in smart mode and all measures containing the anti-COVID-19 measures adopted by the Italian Government according to the directives, prescriptions and guidance from WHO, are duly implemented in and applied to our personnel and facilities in order to guarantee the safest service and the highest possible level of safety for our customers and collaborators. To date, no case of contagion has occurred among our staff, either within the company or among their families.

Our stock of raw materials allows us to be self-sufficient until July 2020. Our main suppliers (Covestro, Röhm GmbH, Sabic, Arkema) have guaranteed the deliveries of our orders scheduled in 2019, until October 2020.

We understand the concerns of our customers, however our sales representatives, which you usually refer to, are at your complete disposal for any help and to ensure our performance and operation.

That’s a difficult time for everyone and it is only with optimism, determination and great commitment that we can overcome this moment all together.

Yours Faithfully, Giuseppe Vasta CEO & PRESIDENT Khatod Optoelectronic Srl
