Starting in June 2025, Andreas Krafft will join the Klingele Paper & Packaging Group’s management team as the new COO for the Packaging division. Krafft is distinguished by his high level of expertise in managing international plants in the process industry. In his position as COO and member of the management team, he is responsible for the global management of Klingele’s corrugated board and converting plants.
Managing partner Dr. Jan Klingele is convinced that Andreas Krafft will contribute to further improving processes and services with his industry-related experience and fresh perspective.
Andreas Krafft looks forward to his new role with enthusiasm: “The entrepreneurial responsibility, the international perspective, and Klingele’s clear, long-term vision appeal to me greatly, and I am grateful for the trust placed in me. Klingele is an independently operating, family-run company with a strong identity – rooted in the region and open to the world. In my role, I want to focus on thinking and acting in the interests of our customers in a pragmatic, solution-oriented manner, with a genuine understanding of their requirements. This way, we can identify opportunities early on and jointly develop and produce effective, resource- and environmentally friendly corrugated board products.”
