Michelin Romania has suspended production at its two tire factories in Zalau, northern Romania, as measures the government is taking to contain the coronavirus continue to tighten. The tire manufacturer said “certain critical activities which will have a specific program” will continue curing the crisis. “We follow all internal protocols to ensure the progressive closure and to protect our employees,” company representatives said in a statement. Michelin has approximately 3,800 employees and three factories in Romania. In addition to its two locations in Zalau, it also has a factory in Floresti.
