On April 21, boxes of love supplies with the words "Elkem Xinghuo Silicones and Shanghai Meeting Challenges Together" were delivered and loaded in the hands of more than 100 Elkem Xinghuo Silicones officials and employees, including 3.6 tons of fragrant rice, 2.2 tons of apples, 2.2 tons of pears, 2 tons of double-flavored eggs, 1 ton of milk, 1 ton of rice noodles,1 ton of fresh vegetables, etc. After a long journey of 23 hours, the "love of Jiangxi" spanning thousands of miles safely arrived at Elkem Silicones Shanghai Co., Ltd. and Elkem International Trade (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
Since mid-March, both Shanghai and Jiangxi have experienced the most severe test in normalized epidemic prevention and control. Although it is also in the hard battle against the epidemic to guarantee production, Elkem Xinghuo Silicones has been concerned about the health and life security of colleagues in Elkem Silicones Shanghai. Zhang Lijun, Vice President of Global Operations of Elkem Silicones, General Manager and Party Secretary of Xinghuo Silicones, arranged for the Labor Union of Elkem Xinghuo to consult the needs of colleagues in Shanghai. To purchase all kinds of living materials urgently in the shortest time, they made every effort to mobilize and allocate all resources under the difficult circumstances of local lockdown and limited logistics in Jiangxi, and contacted a free cold chain transportation logistics.
The more than 48 tons of supplies were carefully selected by Jiangxi colleagues, with rich categories. In addition to fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, rice, noodles and eggs, the most supplies for residents' life, Elkem Xinghuo Silicones also supported a large number of folding beds, quilts, pillows, clothing, toilet paper, medical masks and other supplies after learning that the employees of Elkem Silicones Shanghai could not go home due to lockdown and stuck to their posts to ensure production.
To ensure the safe arrival of supplies in Shanghai in the first place, officials and employees of Elkem Xinghuo Silicones worked overtime to pack and load supplies, saving time and manual labor of Shanghai colleagues in repacking and transporting to the home from the source. All daily supplies were packed independently, and vegetables were sorted and assembled into boxes, effectively avoiding possible virus infection in transit. Although the packing boxes got wet in the heavy rain during unloading, the staff carefully dried them. "Elkem Xinghuo Silicones and Shanghai Meeting Challenges Together, Go ahead, Shanghai, Go ahead, Xinghuo." It is the common heartfelt wish of all our staff members. Inside the rain-drenched cartons, there are warm and deep loves, and they also carry the true sentiments and power of the Chinese people to stand close together in difficult times.
