FULL RESUMPTION OF PRODUCTION IN AMIENS ON JUNE 14

A 100% production ramp-up in the following days

Progressive resumption of deliveries to our customers

Clermont-Ferrand, June 11, 2021 - (FR0004177046 METEX), METabolic EXplorer (METEX), which specializes in the design, development and industrialization of eco-friendly bioprocesses for the production of functional ingredients, confirms the resumption of all production at its Amiens plant on Monday, June 14, as planned, particularly those requiring hydrochloric acid.

The work to install the temporary solution for limited storage of hydrochloric acid was completed on June 9. Throughout this period of work, the Somme DREAL teams were kept informed of their progress to assess the level of safety and the conditions of recovery that they had set, allowing the Prefecture to recognize this Friday morning the reuse of hydrochloric acid on the site.

"I would like to congratulate the teams who have worked so hard and so quickly to ensure that this temporary solution is implemented in compliance with the required safety conditions. I would like to thank the teams from the Somme DREAL, who have given this matter all the importance it deserves in order to keep to the schedule, without compromising safety requirements, and who have enabled the Prefecture to recognize the reuse of hydrochloric acid on the site. The actions and exchanges undertaken with the DREAL will continue in the coming weeks until the installation of the new tanks after the summer, as planned in the investment plan," said David Demeestere, Plant Manager.

The site should be back to 100% of its production capacity in the days following June 14. Deliveries to customers will resume progressively according to terms and deadlines that will be specified directly and individually by the sales teams.

"Our customers have supported us following this event. We would like to thank them once again. All our sales teams are mobilized to allow the resumption of deliveries and the best satisfaction of our customers in this context," says Etienne Corrent, Business and Innovation Director.

Now that the schedule is known, the estimate of the cost of the event and the loss of turnover caused by the shutdown of the plant can be finalized, in conjunction with the insurance companies.
