Borealis helps in Italy


I've just read an article on "austriantimes.at" and it talks about the earthquake in Italy.

I thought you might be interested because the austrian plastic producer company Borealis is the capital of our federal state Upper Austria.

Basically what it says is that the austrian company Borealis helps building shelters for people, who got homeless by the L'Aquila earthquake this year. Borealis, a subsidiary of the Austrian oil and gas producer OMV, is to supply the polyethylene for the water pipes made by the italian firm Centraltubi.

The Austrian foreign-trade office in Padua will supply stuff for 1.3 kilometres of waterpipes in a 13-building appartment for about 1,200 persons.

According to Veronica Ettinger are the polyethylene pipes for water and gas are very resistant to earthquakes. So they try to give a lot of polyetlyene pipes to these people in L'Aquila.
There are still about 11,000 homeless people in the L'Aquila region and about 299 people died cause of this earthquake.

On my opinion, I really like the idea of the company Borealis because I think everybody should help other persons.
