| Heinz Scheider, President and CEO of Pelletron |
Lancaster, PA -- Pelletron recently appointed Heinz Schneider, formerly with Coperion as President and CEO. The move is part of a corporate restructuring by Pelletron designed to launch the company into a period of aggressive growth and expansion.
Schneider is the former vice president of trading for Coperion, an international plastics machinery and systems supplier. “Heinz’s global industry expertise, both technical and sales, is a tremendous asset to Pelletron Corporation,” said Jerry Paulson, founder and chairman of the board.
“He brings a vision and business acumen that will raise our profile in the materials handling industry. We’re very pleased to have Heinz join our family.”
Paulson, who founded Pelletron in 1986, will relinquish his role as president and CEO, but remain as chairman of the board. He will direct the company’s new technology initiatives, with plans to concentrate on the development of new, innovative products. Peggy Paulson will remain as executive vice president of marketing.
Schneider boasts more than 25 years of industry experience. He played a prominent role in establishing the U.S. division of Waeschle, Inc., in the mid-1990s. Schneider served as president of the organization until 2001 when Waeschle merged with two other companies – Buss and Werner & Pfleiderer – to form Coperion.
“With its superior dedusting technology, Pelletron Corporation is clearly the worldwide leader in dust removal equipment,” said Schneider. “Pelletron’s name recognition is expanding throughout the world and the company is in a great position to grow. I’m excited to be able to contribute to that growth.” Schneider said immediate plans include expanding Pelletron’s business to include total pneumatic conveying systems solutions. His goal, he said, is to triple the company’s sales in three years, including substantial growth in Asia and Europe.
“We expect that Pelletron will grow significantly in the years to come, creating new jobs in the United States. And with our sophisticated products and solutions, we will help our customers improve their processing capabilities, resulting in better products,” Schneider said. He added, “We have already begun development of new Pelletron product lines that will be introduced later this year.”
