Under Benack’s leadership, KraussMaffei Extrusion has improved its customer focus levels, operational efficiency, and technological advancements. There has been a noticeable reduction in delivery times, an expansion of the Technology Centre in Laatzen, as well as a growth of the company’s technology portfolio.
“Ralf Benack has led KraussMaffei Extrusion with great integrity, clarity, and personal commitment,” said Alex Li, CEO of the KraussMaffei Group. “He has been a strong advocate for the extrusion business and has driven operational improvements as well as the company’s technological development. On behalf of the entire Executive Board, I would like to express my sincere thanks to him and wish him all the best for the future.”
Benack added, “It is with great pleasure that I look back on what we have achieved together in the extrusion sector, and I thank every one of the KME colleagues for the trust, passion, dedication, and outstanding collaboration along the way. KME is technologically strong and has an exceptional team. I wish Ren Xinting and the entire organisation all the best and much success.”
“I am deeply honoured by the Executive Board's trust as I step into this dual role. KraussMaffei Extrusion rests on an exceptional foundation – driven by pioneering technology, deep domain expertise, and a dedicated team. Fostering a seamless connection across our global operations enables us to serve our international customers with even greater agility and responsiveness. I look forward to working side-by-side with our talented teams in Laatzen, China, and across all our markets to build on this strong momentum,” said Xinting
