- How are you reacting to this emergency?
“Rehau strictly followed the governmental and regional measures in force from the very beginning: most of the collaborators have been working in smart working since the last week of February, guaranteeing the continuity of service through usual email and telephone contacts and privileging the digital channels usage. Although currently the goods are not delivered, the production in our German factories is still active so that our customers can count on the availability of material, at the reopening. By keep on monitoring the situation, trying to react promptly to changes and keeping employees, customers, and all our partners informed, we are doing everything possible to continue guaranteeing the required reliability in the industrial chain”.
- What do you think is changing or will change radically?
“A great uncertainty characterizes the days we are living in and unfortunately, even the “post-Coronavirus” scenarios can only be unpredictable and unknown; before jumping to hasty conclusions, it will be necessary to see how the Italian system reacts. After all, national industries have a relevant export share, so we also depend on the epidemic progression in other countries”.
- What should the authorities and all of us do?
“As long as citizens and companies are concerned, it will take first of all discipline and a strong sense of responsibility in order to contribute in containing the emergency, each of us personally. The State must instead think about a concrete, timely and effective, economic support plan, avoiding putting the country into a crisis that could last for generations. Extraordinary and incisive measures are necessary to face an unprecedented liquidity crisis and to support our sector, which represents an essential supply chain for the economic and social stability of Italy, together with the building industry”.
