Gas Explosion in Porsche Works at Zuffenhausen
Stuttgart. This morning at about five a.m. a gas explosion occurred in the
paint shop of Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, at the main factory
in Zuffenhausen. According to first investigations, it seems that gas had
escaped from a PVC fusion oven which is used in the drying of paints. At
present it is not yet possible to put a figure on the material damage. As
the sprinkler system was activated, parts of the production line were under
water as well as the paint shop. The police and the fire service as well as
the Porsche factory safety unit came immediately to the site of the
accident. Two employees were taken to hospital with slight injuries, but
were able to be discharged in the meantime.
Porsche is forming a crisis management team headed by Production Manager
Michael Macht and Staff Association Chairman Uwe Hück. Both already
gathered first on-the-spot impressions of the damage a short time after the
accident occurred. A works meeting was immediately called, at which the
crisis management team informed workers on the early shift about the
accident. The Chairman of the Board, Dr. Wendelin Wiedeking, was also
continuously informed on the progress of the investigations.
According to present estimates, production of the 911 series will be at a
standstill for at least two to three days. Daily production capacity at
present is approximately 160 units. Since the body shell assembly,
upholstery and engine assembly at the Zuffenhausen factory have not been
affected, production of the Cayenne in the Leipzig factory and production
of the models in the Boxster series by the Finnish Partner Valmet can go
ahead as planned.
