Wakol has completed the long-prepared internal change at the top management level as of 1 March 2024. The two Managing Directors Dr Martin Schäfer and Martin Eichel will jointly succeed Mr Christian Groß. The former Managing Director and member of the founding Groß family is leaving the Pirmasens-based adhesives and sealants specialist Wakol as planned after 27 very successful years.
Succession from within our own ranks
As Chairman of the Management Board, Dr Schäfer will also assume responsibility for the Flooring Materials division and the companies in the DACH region. His deputy Martin Eichel will also be responsible for the international activities of the subsidiaries and holdings as well as the internal sales, marketing and product management departments. His future management responsibilities will also include the Industrial Adhesives and Sealing Compounds business areas. He will be supported here by Stephane Moulin, who has been in charge of these areas for many years and represents them on the Management Board. Mr Steffen Acker completes the management team. Mr Acker has been Director at Wakol since 2013 and is responsible for the areas of production, logistics and plant management.
