Anderson Appointed CEO of Papyrus

Gunilla Andersson has been appointed CFO of Papyrus, Göteborg, Sweden. She joins Papyrus from the Indoor Climate division of the stock exchange listed global engineering group IMI plc, where she currently holds the position of CFO. Andersson will assume her new position this fall. As Papyrus CFO, she will be a member of the Senior Executive Team and take on responsibility for Finance and IT. She will be based at the corporate headquarters in Sweden, and report to Peter Sandberg, president and CEO of Papyrus.

Andersson will succeed Stig Johansson, who is retiring in January next year, after a long and successful paper industry career where, during the past eight years, he has been contributing to the success and growth of Papyrus. As part of the succession planning, Stig will stay with Papyrus until January to support a seamless transition.

"I am very pleased to have Gunilla Andersson joining the Papyrus team. Gunilla has extensive experience from various industries and a proven track record, and will by that be a valuable asset to Papyrus in the continued development of the company towards industry leadership. I would also like to thank Stig Johansson for his dedication and service to Papyrus over the past years," Sandberg said.

Papyrus is a European merchant in paper, facility supplies, and industrial packaging. The company currently operates in 22 countries across Europe and employs some 2,500 people.
