COVID-19 BUSINESS UPDATE
Following the Government's announcement over the weekend that a second lockdown is being initiated from 5 November 2020, Accrol (AIM: ACRL) confirms that, as an essential service provider, it expects to operate normally throughout the lockdown period.
During the first nationwide lockdown in the Spring, Accrol operated at full capacity to supply the heightened consumer demand for its toilet roll and other tissue products and remained fully operational across its three sites, successfully protecting the health and safety of its employees throughout and subsequently through the period of regional restrictions.
The business prepared for a second national lockdown and heightened restrictions and is ready to satisfy additional demand, should it materialise.
