Staying open and working safely during the COVID-19 outbreak

​

Apr 1, 2020

Our production facility in Scotland and North & South American distribution center remains open during the coronavirus crisis.  Stewart-Buchanan Gauges and Stewarts-USA have been identified as ‘key suppliers’ and an essential business as part of the supply chain.  This means that we can remain open and operational at this time despite restrictions.

 

We are eager to play our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19 and have taken several steps to comply with regulations and to protect our workforce and local community.  Where possible, our staff are working from home, reducing the number of people that are in the office, and practicing cleanliness guidelines.

 

We are observing social distancing rules in our facilities and have altered shift patterns to provide the space required to meet government guidelines.  We will continue to monitor the situation to make sure we are meeting government regulations.

​

For our customers, this means that we can continue to fulfil orders with minimal disruption during this very difficult time. Deliveries for non-stocked or out-of-stock items could add a couple of weeks to our standard 4-6 weeks delivery.  Our factory remains well manned and equipped to deal with inquiries and supply what you need.  For urgent requests, we ask that you get in touch with us directly to discuss your requirements before placing an order.

 

The wellbeing and safety of our staff is paramount, and we would like to thank our staff for adapting to the changes we have made.  The wellbeing and safety of our customers is also paramount, and we would also like to let you know we are using any necessary measure to ensure your products are handled properly without any threat of contamination.   

 

Thank you for your continued support during these unprecedented times.
