HELIOS's update on the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak
All HELIOS production sites are running continuously without any disruptions, despite many of our employees now working from home. While ensuring uninterrupted flow of our operations, health and safety of our employees and other stakeholders remain our primary concern.
In accordance with government ordinances in Slovenia and Austria, our retail stores for private customers are closed as of this week onwards. This applies to Mavrica shops in Slovenia and Fritze Lacke shops in Austria. All customers who are due to this exceptional situation unable to access our stores in Slovenia, are kindly invited to make their purchase in our online store.

HELIOS's update on the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak
All HELIOS production sites are based in Europe and are continuously running without any disruptions. In addition, HELIOS also maintains a strong position in terms of inventories and strongly developed network of multiple sources. We are also in close communication with our suppliers in order to assess possible risks in their supply chains.
While ensuring uninterrupted flow of our operations, health and safety of our employees and other stakeholders is being our primary concern:
- We have implemented variety of measures and guidelines at our workplaces to maintain appropriate hygiene standards in offices, common areas and production facilities.
- With the aim of reducing physical contact, we have already enabled our employees to work from home, where possible.
- Majority of non-urgent business trips, meetings, trainings, educational activities, and events were postponed or replaced by different virtual means of communication.
- We have prepared additional guidelines and measures for all the visitors, external contractors and truck drivers visiting HELIOS locations. For truck drivers we arranged dedicated areas as well.
We hope that above mentioned measures will cause least possible disturbance on our communication, delivery, and efficiency of business operations.
We are available for you through our standard contacts within HELIOS companies. You can reach us via emails, mobile phones, and other alternative means of virtual communication, such as teleconferences, Skype calls or MS Teams meetings.
We believe that together we will overcome the difficulties and build even stronger foundation for the time when the situation will return to normal.
