The specialty chemicals group Altana has announced a change in the composition of its Management Board. Dr. Christoph Schlünken will retire at the end of this year and hand over his board responsibilities to Dr. Tammo Boinowitz as of January 1, 2023.
In his new role as Altana Management Board member, Dr. Tammo Boinowitz (55) will be responsible for the Byk and Eckart divisions as well as the central functions Key Account Management, Innovation Management, Environment, Health & Safety, Altana Excellence, and Procurement.
