Crealet is preparing for future challenges by handing over management duties to the next generation. Andreas Wirz is the new CEO and Mario Kuster is Head of R&D. The official handover was on May 9, 2022.
Wirz joined Crealet AG, Wald/Switzerland, as technical administrator, and extended his area of responsibility in 2015, becoming sales manager, progressing into operational management later. He today leads product development in the field of electronic applications.
Kuster also joined the company as mechanical engineer. He specialized in plant engineering and drove the latest developments in feeding carbon fiber from creel to the weaving machine. He also took responsibility for engineering projects for the automotive industry.
At the same time as the management change, there was a change of location. Crealet, founded through a management buyout from Willy Grob AG in 2003, moved its headquarters from Eschenbach/Switzerland to Wald. Larger production halls were needed to assemble warp systems of up to 540 cm standard length and 650-680 cm on customer request with a diameter of up to 1600 mm.
