Frankfurt am Main, GERMANY, March 28, 2023 – Last week, Michael Grün took over as the new CEO and President of the WeylChem Group of Companies. After holding management positions at Lanxess and Münzing Chemie, the 54-year-old was most recently employed as M&A advisor at WeylChem owner International Chemical Investors Group (ICIG).
He succeeds Uwe Brunk, who has decided to step down from these functions after four and a half years and will in turn support ICIG in its growth projects in the future.
Christoph Sprenger, CEO of ICIG, says: "We would like to thank Uwe Brunk for his commitment over the past years in successfully developing the WeylChem Group further. I am pleased that we can continue to leverage his expertise in ICIG's special initiatives and M&A projects in his new role. At the same time, I am happy that with Michael Grün we have been able to attract an accomplished industry expert who will successfully lead WeylChem into the future based on his profound growth expertise."
