Felix Schoeller has announced that Kevin Clunie has been appointed to the newly created position of vice president of sales – Release. Clunie is an industry veteran who brings with him a strong track record of both business development and leadership of sales teams.
According to Felix Schoeller, Clunie, who boasts more than a decade of pressure sensitive adhesive experience with both Mactac and Avery Dennison, is ideally suited for the new role with the Felix Schoeller team.
"Strengthening the Release sales team in North America is part of the Felix Schoeller Group’s strategic plan for this key market segment," notes Michael Szidat, CEO, Americas. "The company has ambitious growth plans for this business, with a strong focus on high performance release liners, especially custom siliconized products."
To support future growth, Felix Schoeller is investing over $20 million in a state-of-the-art silicone coating operation that offers both solvent and solventless coating capabilities. This new coating operation means that Felix Schoeller will for the first time offer
its North American customers domestic production of its wide range of silicone coated liners.
The new line, located at the company’s Pulaski, NY, USA, location, is scheduled to start up in September of this year.
