Diamond HMI News

The working environment has changed considerably since the Government guidelines were announced in April to help reduce the spread of the Corona-virus. At Diamond HMI we have ensured we can meet all these guidelines and keep our staff, suppliers and customers safe.

Following our statement made last week, we have an update from our Far East factories.

In light of the current situation regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, please an update from the Diamond HMI team.

We wish to advise our HMI customers that the Chinese New Year 2020 falls on the 25th January 2020 which is earlier than in recent years. We are anticipating the factories will close for three weeks from around the 20th of January 2020.
