Following the recent divestment of its Rigid and Americas business units, Coveris (Austria) is pursuing the realignment of its business portfolio and this week announced the reorganization of its operating model into three new business units—Films, Flexibles, and Labels and Board. The new model will enable Coveris to offer more targeted product solutions to its diverse customer base.

Wienböker was appointed CTO of Coveris. He is a proven operations expert in the flexible packaging industry, having held COO positions at Huhtamaki and, most recently, at Mondi.

Mumelter has joined Coveris as chief innovation officer. For the past 20 years, he has grown into senior innovation roles within the industry with well recognized companies such as Unterland Flexible Packaging, Mondi, and, most recently, Schur Flexibles.

Coveris also strengthens its sales organization with the appointment of Carsten Grams, who will join the business unit Flexibles in a leading international sales role. Grams has an impressive track record in growing strong international customer portfolios within the industry at leading companies including Huhtamaki and Constantia.

Jakob Mosser, CEO of Coveris Group, stated that "our pan-European focus, centered around technology rather than geography, and supported from our new Vienna-based headquarters, will enable us to better serve our customers both in the U.K. and in continental Europe. Going forward, Coveris' strategy will have a much stronger focus on technology and innovation. I am therefore personally very delighted to strengthen my management team by welcoming these proven industry leaders and experts."
