Koenig & Bauer has confirmed that Christoph Müller, who has been responsible for the digital and webfed part of the business, will step down from his role at the end of March. He will, however, remain with the company as an executive advisor.
Taking his place will be Christian Steinmaßl, who currently oversees parts of the special and new technologies division. He has expressed enthusiasm for his new role, particularly regarding the expansion of the company’s flexographic web printing business and continued development of the company’s RotaJET industrial printing press.
The restructuring falls under the organisation’s ‘Spotlight’ programme led by CEO Dr Andreas Pleßke. It is part of the company’s plan to reduce the size of its executive board to streamline operations.
The announcement of Mr Müller stepping down with Mr Steinmaßl taking his place, follows leadership changes in the paper and packaging sheetfed system’s division which saw Markus Weiß take over from Ralf Sammeck.
