There has been a change of management at WEH: Rolf Kummer has taken over the management of the company. With over 30 years of experience in the valve industry, the mechanical engineer and business economist brings extensive know-how to the company. In his career to date, he has held various management positions - including the establishment of international locations and the development of strategic partnerships.
In addition to his technical training, Kummer has continuously gained further qualifications, including as a business mediator, systemic coach and Six Sigma Black Belt. He will now bring this broad range of skills to his new role at WEH.
“WEH stands for technical excellence, innovative strength and the values of a medium-sized family business. This combination offers great potential - even in a challenging economic environment”, says Kummer. “I look forward to shaping the next steps together with the team, the owner family and our partners.”
Over the course of his career, Kummer has not only built up international locations and sustainably increased order intake in his core business, but has also been involved in industry-related associations such as VDMA Armaturen.
WEH, based in Illertissen, has been in business for over 50 years and specializes in quick-connect systems and alternative refuelling technologies. Despite its international orientation, the company headquarters in Bavaria remains the central location for production and administration.
