COVID-19 and Decree No. 297/2020
We are writing to you in order to comply with section 2, Chapter I, Title XII of the CNV Rules.
In this regard, in compliance with Decree No. 297/2020 issued by the Argentine Government which provides for social, preventive and mandatory isolation until
March 31, 2020, we inform that we have suspended the
production and dispatch of cement, concrete and aggregates operations until the conditions necessary to resume activities are in place. However,
the Company will take the necessary measures to supply its products in accordance with the exceptions
described in the Decree.
Likewise, we have temporarily suspended the construction project of the second line of the L´Amalí Plant, in Olavarría. We have also arranged for
the Company's administration staff to continue working remotely from
their homes.
Finally, we inform that we have formed a Crisis Committee in order to monitor and evaluate the implementation of measures to mitigate the effects derived from this situation.
Sincerely,
