The resistance planted three English firebombs in three of the company's warehouses, however, two bombs were discovered and defused before an actual explosion occurred. The third bomb exploded and caused enormous damage to the factory's new hall. The company only worked to a small extent for the Wehrmacht, as they were subcontractors to another company, which did, in fact, work for the Wehrmacht.
