Last week, Pirelli completed the closure of the motorcycle tire factory in Gravataí, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. The announcement of the unit’s closure was made in May 2019, when the manufacturer began a process of productive reorganization that included adapting the factory in the interior of São Paulo. With the closure, about 850 employees were laid off. See also: Building Materials Manufacturer Announces Investments of R$ 2.5 Billion and Construction of New Factory in the State of São Paulo

The Closure of Production at the Unit in the State of Rio Grande do Sul

The announcement of the factory’s closure in Gravataí was made in May 2019, when the manufacturer began a process of productive reorganization that included adapting the Campinas factory, in the interior of the State of São Paulo, for the production of the tires that had been manufactured for 45 years on Gaúcho soil.

During this period, the government of Rio Grande do Sul tried, unsuccessfully, to persuade the Italian multinational to abandon the idea. Pirelli says it has taken measures to reduce the social impact of the factory’s closure, such as transferring workers to other operations of the group and conducting professional qualification courses for those who lost their jobs.
