The establishment of the independent, global NETSTAL organization continues to progress under the umbrella of the KraussMaffei Group. In the most important regions, NETSTAL will serve customers from the medical technology and the beverage and packaging industries with 12 of its own subsidiaries. By concentrating on strategic application fields, users will benefit from maximum productivity and lowest manufacturing costs.
Under the leadership of CEO Renzo Davatz, subsidiaries have so far been newly established under the NETSTAL name in the United States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, France and Italy. The existing companies in Germany, Spain and Singapore are again operating under the NETSTAL name. Additional branches in Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, and China are currently still being established. The entire incorporation process is expected to be completed this year. "This is an important milestone for us, from which our customers will benefit greatly. With a total of 12 branches of our own and experts for sales and service stationed in them, we will be very close to our customers in the geographically most important markets," says Renzo Davatz, CEO at NETSTAL and member of the Executive Committee of KraussMaffei.
Global excellence for maximum customer success
Here, a clear focus on customers' applications is intended to measurably increase their added value. In the face of tough competition, processors are always faced with the challenge of maximizing output per square meter of production area or per employee. Cycle time, precision and reliability are significant levers to maximize productivity and minimize total cost per part produced. Efficient use of resources is also relevant, such as low energy consumption or additional material savings. "NETSTAL stands for reliable high-performance injection molding of thin-wall packaging, medical consumables, PET preforms and beverage closures. In technology and application knowledge, we continuously strive for optimization and innovation so that our customers can achieve maximum success. We consistently embed this approach in our corporate culture, worldwide and in all phases of the customer life cycle," emphasizes Renzo Davatz.
Experienced team
NETSTAL was able to win experienced industry experts for the management of its subsidiaries. Doug Haberman has taken over the management in the USA (see media release dated April 26th, 2022). The two companies in Brazil and Mexico, which are not yet active, will be managed by Italo Zavaglia. In the UK, Jim Craig is setting up the new company. The two subsidiaries in Spain and France will be managed by Jacques Socquet. David Deliever will be responsible for NETSTAL BeNeLux, based in Belgium. As before, Uwe Telinde leads the NETSTAL Germany team. Alberto Rossi continues to expand the business in Italy (See media release from June 8th, 2022). Prawit Yodprechavigit will lead the not yet active branch in Thailand as well as NETSTAL Singapore. No managing director can yet be named for the branch office in China, which is still being established.
"Despite all the adversities of the current market environment, it is a great pleasure to see the NETSTAL organization emerging and continuing to grow together. I am proud that I can rely on equally experienced and highly motivated managers for this challenge," concludes Renzo Davatz.
