The implementation of all these changes are made with the focus to guarantee the health, safety and welfare of our employees .
Dear customers,
The global COVID-19 epidemic is affecting all of our families, businesses, communities and lifestyles.
In this critical period, LBA, which is particularly involved in the fields of Defense, Energy and Healthcare, must ensure its production capacities remain operational. In light of the latest decisions taken by most European governments, our teams are mobilized and contribute to the collective effort to maintain a normal production rate and meet your needs:
- The commercial and administrative staff are working remotely, but with the tools provided your point of contacts remain intact and unchanged,
- Meetings are held by video conference thanks to the IT tools provided by LBA,
- Travel outside the workplace is strictly limited,
- Our logistics teams remain mobilized on site,
- Health and safety practices are strengthened,
- Production workstations have been adapted.
We have very few absent staff. We obviously prioritize customer service in order to meet our deadline commitments, and we are closely monitoring the logistic situation, without any major interruptions to date.
Our Group is fully integrated from foundry to parts finishing, and we have large stocks of raw materials that guarantee the continuity of our operations. As our raw material suppliers are mainly based in Germany, the closure of the borders between France and Germany could potentially add few days of delay to the incoming logistics.
LBA is fully supportive of the decisions and efforts made by governments and healthcare professionals in the affected countries. We are convinced that in this way this crisis will be quickly brought under control.
On behalf of LBA, we thank you for your confidence and remain at your disposal for any information.
