Kulzer Names New President

Kulzer announced that it has appointed Marc Berendes the new CEO of its global organization. He replaces Akira Misawa, who returns to Japan to assume a new responsibility at Mitsui Chemicals headquarters after overseeing the successful integration of Kulzer into the Mitsui Chemicals (MCI) Group. Kulzer also announced that Hiromi Hayashida and Stefan Klomann will join the company's Board of Management.

Berendes, an existing member of Kulzer's Board of Management, had been responsible for sales, customer service, and marketing as the company's Chief Sales Officer since 2016.

"We will further develop our vision to be the lifetime partner of our customers," Berendes says. "We will focus our innovation on those areas that maximize productivity gains for dentists and dental technicians and create the solutions and services that help our customers restore patients' oral health."
