The 51-year-old mechanical engineer took up his role at the start of the year and can draw on many years of experience in international plant design. Before joining Germany-based Beumer he was, among other things, product manager and sales manager for large-scale plants at an internationally active manufacturer of cement plants.
He succeeds Andrea Prevedello, who was appointed CEO of Beumer Group Austria at the turn of the year.
Beumer, together with its centre of competence for conveyance & loading (CL) Systems, globally develops and implements complex system solutions for industries including the quarrying, mining and raw materials sectors and port handling.
“I am looking forward to contribute with my many years of experience to the further development of the systems business within Beumer Group,” said Tigges.
