Bobst Group Re-Alignment
ROSELAND, N.J.—Starting in January of 2010, following the worldwide model, Bobst Group North America re-aligned into three Business Units: Sheet Fed, Web Fed, and Services. As part of its re-organization of responsibilities, Bobst Group SA has named Alain Jendly, formerly North American vice president - Flexible Materials, to the newly created position of worldwide head of service centers. Jendly has re-located to the company’s headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Michael D’Angelo has assumed the newly created role of vice president and business director for the Business Unit Web Fed North America, which comprises the former Flexible Materials business. D’Angelo will also continue in his current management position in sales for corrugated equipment in the Business Unit Sheet Fed North America.
“I’m gratified that I will get to renew contacts with the many friends I made while serving the flexible packaging market earlier in my career, while maintaining the numerous relationships I’ve developed within the corrugated community,” reports D’Angelo. “I have a great deal of respect for both of these unique businesses and welcome this chance to expand my role with Bobst Group.”
Business Unit Web Fed serves the United States and Canada with products manufactured under the brand names Fischer & Krecke, Rotomec, Champlain, Kochsiek, Schiavi, and Titan. Bobst Group Sheet Fed products for corrugated include the brand names Bobst, Martin, and Asitrade.
