Fighting COVID-19 and keeping our employees safe


As part of the critical and essential infrastructure during the pandemic, it is our responsibility to continue to produce safe, wholesome products for our customers. Primex has implemented new steps and brought in new equipment to protect our employees, our business partners and the communities in which we live and work, including:

  • Temperature monitoring of all employees prior to work shifts
  • Sanitizing and sterilization of high volume, multi-employee touchpoints
  • Increased hand washing and hand sanitization stations
  • Restriction of all non-essential visitors, including vendors and customers
  • Truck drivers strictly isolated to scale and loading area
  • Remote work when possible
  • Requested limits on foreign and domestic travel
  • Employees over the age of 65 can self-quarantine with no financial consequence
  • Physical distancing staying 6 feet apart

We asked our employees to wear masks in public before it was directed by the State of California. As the number of infections in California and across the country began to rise, we instituted a rigorous testing program at the plant along with additional protective measures:

  • We brought in a professional team to completely sanitize our plant and make sure our facility would be free of the virus.
  • We hired an FDA approved rapid COVID-19 testing unit and provided COVID-19 tests for all workers at our plant.
  • We installed plexiglas dividers at grading tables, break rooms, and elsewhere.
  • We installed tents and outdoor seating areas for employee breaks.
  • We installed signage throughout the plant to remind employees of best practices in hygiene and physical distancing.
