Jean-Baptiste Clavel has been appointed as Kebony’s new Chief Executive Officer in replacement of Norman Willemsen.

Clavel has held senior leadership positions at Zodiac Pool Systems and The Coleman Company Inc, where he managed complex strategic developments and spearheaded major innovations.

Willemsen has decided to leave the environmentally friendly wood modification technology company after four years of service to pursue new challenges. 

Chairman of the Board, Cornelius Walter, commented: “Norman will be missed and we thank him for his unwavering commitment to the company and its mission. As he moves on to new endeavours, we all wish him the very best for the future.

“Furthermore, I am delighted to welcome Jean-Baptiste as our new Chief Executive. He joins us with ample directly-applicable experience to the company’s current condition and is capable of taking us to new heights thanks to his strategic capabilities and proven operational effectiveness. I, and the entire Board, wish him every success in his new post.”
