AMETEK Scientific Instruments Customer Statement on the COVID-19 Coronavirus
We are open, operational and remain ready to serve and support you.
At AMETEK Scientific Instruments, enabling our customers to accomplish their objectives is a key priority, and our global teams are hard at work to avoid disruptions from the COVID-19 virus while acting responsibly to do all that we are able to prevent further spread. We continue to closely monitor and assess the evolving situation and will be diligent in our communication with affected customers regarding shipment timing or other issues resulting from this situation.
Our operations
Our manufacturing facilities remain open and operational, as our enterprise is deemed an essential business and must therefore continue to operate. We have taken specific precautions to protect our workforce and to support our productivity during this time. This includes increased cleaning and disinfection, screening of employees upon arrival, temporary restriction of access for visitors, and the practice of social distancing within the workplace. Internal and external events have been rescheduled virtually, postponed or canceled.
Our employees
We are committed to providing a safe environment for our employees, their families and the communities in which we operate. We have asked our employees to work at home where possible and practical to reduce transmission risks and to keep them safe.
Our products and services
Our manufacturing sites have business continuity plans that cover the physical infrastructure of the site, supply-chain operations and logistics/distribution. Our parts and components come from a complex and diversified supply chain and we regularly meet with our strategic suppliers to assess the robustness of their models and their individual business continuity plans. We have proactively initiated these plans to help ensure continuity of supply.
Based on information provided by the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the
World Health Organization, we do not believe our products nor the packaging in which they are transported pose any transmission risk of COVID-19.
Our commitment
We offer this information to demonstrate the depth of our commitment – to our customers, to our employees, to our partners in commerce and to our suppliers. We stand ready to continue our service and support during the evolving circumstances surrounding COVID-19.
