Effective July 1, 2021 Dr. Paul Walach (37) becomes Managing Director of Reifenhäuser Cast Sheet Coating together with Karsten Kratz. With this move, the Reifenhäuser Group business unit specializing in cast film, sheet and extrusion coating lines introduces a generation change at executive management level. Bernd Reifenhäuser, CEO of the Reifenhäuser Group: "We are placing young executives in charge but with experienced executives to flank them. This makes for a good mix of know-how, diversity, and stability."

Dr. Paul Walach holds a doctorate in mechanical engineering and has already worked for the Reifenhäuser Group in various positions over a period of seven years - the last three of them as technical director of Cast Sheet Coating.
