Hopefully they had the foresight to have insurance. Still sad though.
Very sad. I believe you said in one of your previous posts that bruken makes pipes for various brands (?). If so this could have widespread effects
Yes, although that is something that is not officially stated. What is known is that in addition to being a pipe factory, they are collectors, maturers and a sawmill for briar for other clients. For now, they are concentrating on the civil recovery of the town of Aldaia, which suffered serious damage and the lamentable number of 61 deaths so far. The missing persons in the Valencia area are around 1,900.
It’s awful. I was just in Jerez, visiting my sister-in-law. Some flooding there but not nearly so bad as in Valencia area. And they’re still getting more rain in the southwest
Very sorry to learn of the terrible consequences of the bad weather.
Ahhh I’d never heard of Bruken till now, thanks for sharing.
