UK Manufacturing – Together we can do this

As we enter another week of the crazy-coronavirus crisis, amid lockdown, quarantines and cancellations, it’s always encouraging to see so many positive messages and witnessing the very best in humanity.

I’m not sure about you, but we are all realising that life will be very different for a little longer with another 3 weeks of lockdown announced last week.

It’s always a little disappointing to hear legislators telling us that social distancing will probably continue until a vaccine is discovered. The prospect of normality still seems a long way off.

Coronavirus without doubt is hitting all areas of everyday life, clearly, manufacturing is being affected by COVID-19 but then the whole economy is being affected by COVID-19.

So, what can we do?

Speaking on behalf of the entire #DeltaTeam we firstly would like to send a heartfelt “Thank you” to all the key workers who are working tirelessly from delivery drivers to care workers.  We appreciate all your efforts in this pandemic for the betterment of our communities.

To furloughed workers, “Thank you” for staying at home and protecting the NHS.

Delta’s co-founder and Director, Christopher Burbridge said:

“Nothing is more important to us than the wellbeing of our employees, customers and the communities we serve.  Following guidance from the World Health Organisation (WHO), Public Health England and the Government we are constantly adjusting our processes and observing social distancing measures.

We want to do everything we can to support our employees, customers, team members and the communities we serve.  We have opted to carry on as close to business “as normal” as possible to ensure supply chains are unaffected and to ensure we are supporting all customers whilst doing our part for the economy.

In order to maintain key supplier relationships as this crisis continues, we shall continue to determine ways to help and support our customers.  With over 127 years’ experience the Delta brand has withstood many diversities over the years”.

We are very much business as usual, our technical team can assist with technical queries, specifications, training and CPD seminars.  Our sales teams are processing orders with our warehouse staff fulfilling orders and ensuring smooth delivery.

Take care and stay well.  Together, we can do this!

Chris, Kevin, David & Brian
