March 24th, 2020

Dear customers,

Following the March 23 announcement by the Quebec government requiring the closing of non-essential businesses until April 13, we want to reassure you that based on our understanding, HiTech Piping is considered as a company that provides essential products to the majority of its clients and a such, we will remain open and operational until further notice.

Since the very beginning of this pandemic, we have taken special measures to protect the health of all our employees. We have therefore put in place strict guidelines that include, among other things, sanitary rules, restrictions on travel or visits to clients and mandatory isolation for employees returning from travel. Since March 18th, our offices are no longer accessible to visitors and it is no longer possible to pick up orders, but we continue to ship orders through our regular transport partners. We have also implemented a homeworking policy in order to reduce the number of employees in our offices.

We will therefore continue to support our client with priority manufacturing activities such as: production of pharmaceutical goods, food production, pulp and paper sector, chemical products manufacturing, health products manufacturing and certain industrial and mining complexes.

Rest assured that we take all the necessary measures to maintain quality service.

—Steve Di Florio, President
