The passenger tyre plant in Bari (Italy) and retreading facility in Lanklaar (Belgium) are anticipated to restart later this month.

But factories in India, South Africa and France will remain closed for now.

Factories in Poland (Poznan and Stargard) and Hungary (Tatabanya) have remained operational but running at reduced capacity.

The restart plans reflect the demand trend seen in several market segments including OEM passenger tyres and the commercial sector which has been less severely affected by the economic downturn.
