Cascades Provides Update On Its COVID-19 Operations

Cascades Inc., has provided an update regarding the evolving COVID-19 landscape as it relates to the company.

Cascades has been adhering to all guidelines provided by government officials in the United States and Canada, says the company in a press statement. 

"Given the essential nature of our packaging and hygiene products, all of our facilities continue to operate," says the company. "Cascades is working closely with its customers to ensure that their product, needs and those of their customers, are fulfilled."

Cascades is closely monitoring the current situation surrounding COVID-19 and claims to have introduced comprehensive and rigorous hygiene policies in every one of its operations to ensure the health and safety of its employees.

"The Company is committed to ensuring the continuity of our operations and supporting our customers, partners and the communities in which the Company operates," says Cascades.

 

In the past few days several U.S. states have taken steps to restrict the activities of businesses and other organizations. In each of these cases, all of Cascades' activities have been recognized as "essential" or "life sustaining". Additional U.S. states and/or Canadian provinces may initiate similar measures in the short term. The Company continues to monitor the situation daily. Cascades believes that it has an economic and social responsibility to maintain our operations and is acutely aware that our products play a vital role in the lives of consumers and in the supply chains of our customers across North America. The Company's packaging products are important components in the distribution of critical goods and food products, and Cascades' hygiene products are essential daily necessities for individuals, families and businesses.
