The WITTMANN Group companies have made special challenges due to the corona virus pandemic.
In order to contribute to the global crisis management and even so to keep in touch with customers, the necessary measures were taken.
Wherever possible, activities have been moved to the home office and currently no visits of its production facilities are taking place.
Nevertheless, the production operations in some of the plants are kept up so far.
As of April 28th the production plants in Hungary and China continue their production without any limitation.

All other departments of WITTMANN BATTENFELD France are available, such as service hotline, deliveries of spare parts, technical consultations.
In the U.S., Federal State of Connecticut made an Executive Order, for those who can work remote to do so, and for many non-essential companies, to close until April 22. However, over 45 medical supply customer letters came in seeking WITTMANN BATTENFELD USA as essential supplier to allow them to continue to make essential medical supplies that are critical for this pandemic.
Currently, WITTMANN BATTENFELD USA factories in Torrington, CT have their staff voluntarily coming in to support production for essential customer needs.
In addition, its U.S. division, Parts and Service are still supporting customers, which includes phone tech support, web service, after hours hotlines.
The company says great commitment of employees worldwide and the strong solidarity in the WITTMANN Group companies are currently proving themselves in a special way. This attitude will make it possible to continue the success story of the WITTMANN Group, through the current crisis and beyond.
