cyber-attack update 
Like several other companies Saint-Gobain experienced an important cyber-attack on June 27, 2017. IT systems were disconnected to stop the spread of the virus and back-up working modes were immediately activated in all businesses of Saint-Gobain. No personal data has been disclosed to any third party.
Throughout the event all efforts have been made to ensure the continuity of our business and in particular to keep any impact on our customers to a minimum. The majority of our businesses are already operating normally. One week after the attack, substantial progress has been made to put all of our systems back on line with a full return to normal operations expected early next week.
