GERMANY – Dr. Daniel Schmitt (51) will become the new CEO of Homag Group AG with effect from January 1, 2022.
Dr. Schmitt has been a member of Homag’s Board of Management since mid-2021. He is currently responsible, above all, for the solid-wood business of the world market leader in woodworking machinery.
Prior to joining Homag, Dr. Schmitt, who holds a PhD in chemical engineering, oversaw the Dürr Group’s environmental technology segment.
Dr. Daniel Schmitt stated: “The time I have spent with Ralf Dieter at the helm of Homag has given me a great head start. I have got to know Homag as a fascinating company with highly motivated employees, and I have had the opportunity for extensive dialog with the customers. Due to reintroducing the advantages of a medium-sized company and the huge investments we have initiated, Homag is on course for sustained, profitable growth. Furthermore, we have strengthened our position in the solid-wood business through acquisitions and can thus benefit from the worldwide trend toward sustainable construction using wood. I look forward to working with all employees and will lead Homag as a team player.”
