"I look forward to working alongside the members as we chart the path forward with a focus on our four key initiatives: (1) Fighting for Fair Trade in our industry, (2) Promoting Aluminium extrusions and the benefits of our products, (3) Providing educational programs to drive Business Excellence, and (4) Pushing for higher Safety in all extrusion plants.”
He also said, "Over the years AEC has led our industry through some turbulent times, and as we find ourselves in challenging times once again, the AEC will no doubt play a vital role leading us through to a brighter future. I look forward to partnering with the great volunteers and the rest of the AEC Board of Directors.”
Two new members of the Board of Directors were also elected. Craig Werner, VP Extrusion Technology at Kaiser Aluminum, was elected to serve as an Extruder Director and Matt Schicke of Rio Tinto Aluminium to the position of At-Larger Director.
