Facilitated by PricewaterhouseCoopers and chaired by Ryan Green of Clayton Glass, a first Glass & Glazing Covid-19 online meeting took place on Thursday 16 April.

The meeting brought together business leaders representing the glazing industry supply chain. The objective of the new group is to bring concerns around coronavirus from the industry for constructive discussion and look at ways to help get back to work and recover quickly when lockdown measures are lifted.

 

 “I found this first conversation very useful and balanced, and think a few good initiatives came out of it that have the potential to come to fruition in terms of a guidance document on the approach to install.”

"The meeting also stressed the amount of work and constructive discussions needed from the entire supply chain,” continued Green.

The discussions also highlighted the high levels of interdependence within the industry. To achieve a successful and efficient return for us all, it was agreed that we should keep talking and sharing experiences.

Some good ideas on how this could be achieved were brought forward and the industry will look to develop practical initiatives to make it happen.
