We would like to pay a tribute to the Plastiflex staff in China and Hong Kong.
We managed to re-open our factories on February 11th (albeit still at a reduced level as a lot of workers are still having difficulties in returning to the factories).
Despite very difficult personal and logistic conditions, our staff is doing a great job (ensuring enough masks for all workers, ensuring all raw materials and transport to ship the goods, agreeing revised shipment dates with our customers and obviously also manufacturing our flexible hoses and tubes).
In a very good collaboration with the local authorities, we are now seeing each day a bigger number of managers and workers returning to the plants and hope that we can get back to a full operational situation as soon as possible.
We are also helping directly to fight the virus by producing some Government emergency orders for our Health care tubes in order to bring breathing relief for Covid-19 patients.
So, thanks again to everybody for such a great job.
我们要向巴拉斯在中国大陆和香港地区的所有员工致敬。
巴拉斯想尽一切办法在2020年2月11日 复工。（虽然目前返工率不高，仍有部分员工因为交通困难无法按时返工。）
尽管个人和交通运输等条件都相当困难，但我们的员工做得非常好。（保证所有的员工都有足够的口罩佩戴，保证原材料和产成品的运输，积极与客户沟通可能达成的交期，当然我们也在组织软管等产品的有序生产。）
在与地方政府的良好协作下，我们看到每天我们都有一定数量的管理层和员工能够回到工厂，组织生产经营活动，我们希望能尽快恢复到全面运营状态。
同时，我们也在直接和新型冠状肺炎病毒做斗争，我们医疗事业部在紧急生产政府的订单，用来帮助冠状病毒病人解除呼吸困难。
最后，再次诚挚地感谢各位同仁为这次特殊疫情期间中国工厂复工及生产交付做出的努力！
For over 70 years, Plastiflex has been a global leader in plastic hoses and hose systems for various end-uses.
