Current information on our measures regarding COVID-19

As of 07.04.2020

In these difficult times regarding the spread of COVID-19, companies in particular are in a difficult situation that also requires a high degree of responsible decision-making.

At Kaestner-Tools, measures were taken at an early stage to contain the spread of the virus, while at the same time ensuring the health of our employees and business partners is protected, and that our operations and thus our abilitiy to supply our customers are maintained.

The following is an overview of the measures we have taken:
 

1. Protection of our employees, business partners and other contact groups:

- Increase of hygiene regulations already with the appearance of the first infections in Germany

- At that time, parts of the workforce were already beginning to work from the home office. In the meantime, this measure has been expanded to the maximum. In addition, measures have been taken to provide personnel backup in areas where working from the home office is not possible.

- In all our locations, a distance of at least 1,50m to other people must be maintained.

- Meetings and conferences, both internal and external, are held exclusively by videoconference.

- In all Kaestner-Tools locations, external visits have been cancelled or postponed until further notice.

- Quarantine regulations for employees after returning from one of the worldwide risk areas, also in case relatvies have returned from such an area.


2. What is the current production, storage and delivery capacity?

Both our production facilities, which are spread over several locations, and our shipping and receiving departments continue to operate as usual, taking into account the measures mentioned in point 1 and necessary adjustments to the overall situation. Our storage capacity is also sufficiently high, so that we still can guarantee the supply of Kaestner-Tool products to our customers. Our logistics partners are also working as usual at the moment, so that delivery and dispatch of goods are also possible without any restrictions.

At the present time, deliveries of goods from, to and via countries with restrictions on the movement of persons are still possible without restriction.


3. Are there any effects with regard to the supply of raw materials or other supplied parts?

There is currently no effect on our supply of raw material and other supplier products. For our part, we are in constant contact with our suppliers and currently assume that our contractually agreed deliveries will continue to arrive. It also applies here that deliveries of goods from, to and via countries with restrictions on the movement of persons are currently still possible without restriction.


4. Effects on the availability and ability to act of Kaestner-Tools departments and employees:

Thanks to our technical equipment, all departments can also be reached in the home office under the usual contact details. This means, that all Kaestner-Tools departments are still able to act, but due to the current situation personal contacts are not possible at the moment. Thank you for your understanding.


5. What happens in case of a change in the current situation?

In case of a fundamental change in the situation described above, we will of course inform you immediately.


Kaestner-Tools sincerely hopes, you and your families will stay healthy throughout these times!
