New managing director for Arburg Poland

As of January 1, 2021, the Arburg subsidiary in Poland has a new Managing Director in the person of Konrad Szymczak. He succeeds Slawomir Sniady, who successfully established and expanded Arburg Polska and has now retired after 25 years. Poland is one of the most important and strongest markets in Europe for Arburg and has been served by its own subsidiary in Warsaw since 1992.

The Polish market is very well balanced. Strong industries include medical technology and packaging, but also automotive, white goods and electrical/electronics. In recent years, Arburg has purposefully built up intensive contacts with customers in all the above-mentioned industries. Automation and robotics are becoming increasingly important in Poland. Arburg offers solutions for whatever is needed and is very well positioned with its new subsidiary premises in Warsaw (built in 2016) and experienced local team.

Konrad Szymczak sets his future priorities as Managing Director accordingly: "I think that the further successful development of the Arburg subsidiary in Poland will depend to a large extent on the confidence that customers from various industries have in the skills and flexibility of our team. Some customers have known the staff here for years and have a close relationship with them - both personally and professionally. This is why I want to continue to target the development of skills and abilities in employees as well as in myself, and so strengthen and expand our customer relationships."
