Sri Lanka-based Global Rubber Industries (Pvt) Ltd. (GRI) is continuing limited operations in its factory “with maximum health and safety precautions.”
“The Sri Lanka government has granted special permission to export companies even under lock down conditions and declared the island’s natural rubber industry as essential for the country,” say GRI officials.
The specialty tire manufacturer has “developed a COVID-19 operating procedure well above that required by the World Health Organization and our government, conducted prompt training and (has) instilled a strong sense of responsibility with each employee.” said GRI CEO Dr. Mahesha Ranasoma.
