Call for a partial exception from the order prohibiting freight transport vehicles with a loaded weight of more than 7.5 tonnes

The recent snowfalls and the consequent measures adopted are leading to a growing risk of ceramic production having to be suspended due to difficulties in procurement of raw materials, especially ceramic body, which by its nature is not suitable for storage but requires a continuous supply stream. This situation is further compounded by the increased difficulties in transport of finished products.

As communicated to the Competent Authorities yesterday (Monday 1 February), Confindustria Ceramica calls for a partial exception to be made from the order prohibiting freight transport vehicles with a loaded weight of more than 7.5 tonnes from circulating outside inhabited areas. This measure would avoid the risk of a shutdown of production by the companies in the ceramic cluster and the repercussions that this would have in terms of employment.
