We offer our deepest condolences to those who have died due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19). We wish a speedy recovery of infected people and sincerely hope that the infection will be contained soon.
There is no change in status of the Gigaphoton Group concerning the infection prevention measures for the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) since Report#4, issued on 24 March 2020.
Status of employees
To prevent any impact due to the spread of infection to our production, support activities, and operation of factories of our customers. We are implementing measures such as restrictions on overseas and domestic business travel, working from home and working in shifts.
Production and Supply Chain
There are no serious problems with the production and supply capabilities of our suppliers at present. The production of laser products and spare parts remains uninterrupted. However, one of the risk factors is that some suppliers are using parts from out side of Japan. We will continue to watch the situation in this regard.
Service Support
In regard to service support, headquarters functions such as a parts supply and technical support are being carried out as usual. On-site service support to individual customers, please contact our local representative or at the contact information given below.
We will continue providing appropriate information through our web site.
