WOLFGANG Studener has resigned
from his position as president and chief
executive officer of BC Extrusion Holding,
Germany, leaving the company after 30
years to join Battenfeld. He will continue to
work for the company as a consultant and
member of the advisory board.
Under Studener’s leadership, the group has
seen significant growth and development
in the pipe, profile, cast film and sheet
extrusion industries.
Jürgen Arnold succeeded Mr Studener on
1 July 2009 and can draw on a wealth of
experience in the plastics and machine
manufacturing industries. After studying
plastics engineering and economics
he worked in various positions in the
plastics industry for more than 20 years.
Subsequently, Mr Arnold held several
managerial positions in the industrial gas
and mechanical separation sectors. From
2003 to 2009, he was president and CEO
of Sterling SIHI, a leading supplier of liquid
and vacuum pumps and pump systems.
Mr Arnold said: “I am looking forward to my
new task at BC Extrusion and to continuing
Wolfgang Studener’s successful work in
the best interest of the company and its
staff, and I am sure that we will master the
extremely difficult current market situation
and continue to be successful.”
