Progroup confirm promotion of Maximilian Heindl

From 1st August 2017, Maximilian Heindl, son of the company founder and Chief Executive Officer Jürgen Heindl, will be taking over responsibility as Deputy Chairman in Progroup’s senior management team. Maximilian Heindl joined the company back in mid-2016 and successfully took charge of the area of production and technology at Propapier (PM1 and PM2) as well as assuming overall responsibility for Propower.

With the Two Twentyfive strategy, which began in 2016, Progroup is approaching the ten-year period that lies ahead with ambitious projects and success-driven trade and is consistently striving to expand its market leadership in the sheet-feeding market in Central Europe.

The required structural reconfiguration and expansion of the Executive Board is now continuing its logical progress with the appointment of Maximilian Heindl to the role of Deputy Chairman. “I am particularly delighted that with my son joining the Executive Board the future course for the successful development of the family company has been set at an early stage. The aim is to continue to champion our business model in the market as a private company in the future,” says Jürgen Heindl, Chief Executive Officer of Progroup.

At Progroup, as well as serving on the Executive Board, Maximilian Heindl will continue in his role as head of the area of production and technology for Propapier and assume overall responsibility for Propower. Before he joined Progroup, Maximilian Heindl was successfully employed as P&S EMEA Press Director of Production and as management consultant for Business Line P&S at Voith Paper GmbH & Co. KG in Heidenheim.
