Anders comments: “During my time with Munksjö in China, I had the chance to work with many talented and ambitious colleagues. I hope to bring some of their spirit with me into my new role. Since I have known most of my colleagues in the Group administrative functions before, I will be full of inspiration to start my new job in July. With Xiang as my successor as General Manager for our joint venture, I am confident we will accelerate the development – especially the supply part – of our business in China. I am glad to get the chance to support Xiang in his new role while staying close to my other colleagues in China!”
“Munksjö China has undergone and will continue a tremendous change towards a bright future full of challenges and opportunities. I’m honored to join a great team who are making this happen, and looking forward to learning from and working with each and every one. I firmly believe that together, we will build a stronghold of Munksjö operation in China to support the company’s long-term success both locally nd globally”, says Xiang Huang.

Tomas Wulkan, retiring CEO of Munksjö, comments: “Anders has been deeply involved in establishing Munksjö as a stand-alone company and building our future plans. With his deep knowledge of the company, our organization, and our development plan, he will be key to the further advancement of Munksjö as a leader in the decor paper industry. I want to thank Anders for his exceptional commitment to the company. During very challenging times, he enabled the execution of our China plans. Much work remains in Xingtai, but we have established Munksjö with a state-of-the-art asset in the world’s largest decor paper market. With his technical background in a leading international paper company, Xiang is well qualified to continue the work that Anders has started.”

“I also want to thank Matthias for his phenomenal contribution to the company over the past decades. He leaves Munksjö with an excellent reputation as the “grand old man” of our industry. His market know-how and customer-driven leadership have been instrumental to our business and success for a long time”, says Tomas. “I wish Xiang and Florian most welcome to Munksjö and wish them and Anders the best of luck in their new assignments,” he concludes.
