Prysmian Group has been awarded

a new contract for a frame agreement

worth approximately €26 million by

SBB CFF FFS, the Swiss Federal Railways

company.

The contract includes the supply of

a total of approximately 2,800km of

signalling cables for the upgrade of the

Swiss railways infrastructure. The contract

management will be coordinated by

Prysmian Group’s team in Switzerland.

The cables will be manufactured in Berlin,

Germany, and delivered on a call-off basis

over a period of five years from October

2014 to the end of 2019.

“This award reflects customers’ trust

in Prysmian’s capabilities to meet the

increasing demand for the development

of new infrastructures and to act as a

single-stop shop where players from

different industry segments can find the

most viable solutions to their needs,” said

John Chrupcala, director of BU Industrial

at Prysmian Group.

With 31,000 employees, 3,175 route

kilometres,

more

than

1

million

passengers per day and 195,000 tonnes

per day of freight transported every

year, the Swiss Federal Railways is the

largest travel and transport company in

Switzerland.

This new project confirms Prysmian’s

technology and market leadership role

in the sector of cables for the railway

industry, where the group can rely on a

number of projects completed or currently

on-going with the main national railways

companies in Italy (Trenitalia), Germany

(DB), Spain (RENFE) and Turkey (TCDD).

Changes at the top at Tenova

Alberto Iperti has stepped down as chief executive of Tenova. He will remain on the

board and assist during a transition phase that will see four new managing directors at

the helm of different divisions within the company.

“I thank Alberto Iperti very much for his personal commitment and valuable contribution

over the past two years,” said Gianfelice Rocca, executive chairman. “Reviewing the strategy,

he quickly and successfully reshaped the organisation towards a focused and profitable

growth and thus created a sustainable platform for our new leadership structure.”

Under Mr Rocca’s governance as executive chairman, since 1

st

October Tenova has been

managed by a team of four managing directors leading the company’s business areas

around the respective industry competencies within the Tenova portfolio.

Walter Kueng is leading Tenova Mining & Minerals, Mauro Medici is at Tenova Pomini &

I2S, Roberto Pancaldi is head of Tenova Thermprocesses and Andrea Rocca leads Tenova

Steel Making & Strip Processing.
