Change in Management

ISOVER and RIGIPS

Raimund HEINL, who has managed the ISOVER and RIGIPS brands in Germany as Chairman of the Board and Managing Director, as well as serving as CEO of Saint-Gobain Germany and Austria for the past three and a half years, will transfer this part of his responsibilities to Cordula GUDDUSCHAT with effect from 1 September 2023.

Cordula Gudduschat has been responsible for the "International Marketing" division of the Saint-Gobain Group in Paris for the past four years. "We are pleased to have found an experienced international manager from within our corporate group for this important and demanding task", said Raimund Heinl. "In recent years, we have repositioned the organisation and strategy of the ISOVER and RIGIPS brands for the future, so now is a good time for the handover."

As CEO of Saint-Gobain Germany & Austria, Raimund Heinl intends to prioritise developing the company's entire portfolio of brands, creating additional synergies and establishing the corporate group as a leader in sustainable building practices in both countries, in line with the motto “MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER HOME”.

SAINT-GOBAIN RIGIPS GMBH

RIGIPS. You have a solution for everything. #RigipsForEverything
Recognised as a system provider of high-quality drywall solutions by construction professionals, RIGIPS offers a wide range of gypsum and speciality boards, Rigidur gypsum fibreboards, profiles and accessories, as well as high-performance joint fillers and compounds. The tested solutions prove their worth in interior and exterior drywall constructions. Particularly, the system offerings for weather-protected façade constructions make RIGIPS the ideal partner for timber frame construction. With its continually expanding range of healthy-living products and highly effective fire and soundproofing systems, the manufacturer stands for maximum safety and comfort. The comprehensive product and system portfolio is complemented by a wide range of services and personalised expert advice, providing valuable support in the planning and execution of even the most demanding construction projects. At the same time, RIGIPS is committed to environmental responsibility, focusing on sustainable climate protection and the conservation of natural resources. For instance, gypsum board recycling options increasingly close material cycles, while product packaging made from recycled materials reduces the need for primary raw materials. RIGIPS has repeatedly been recognised as a "Brand of the Century" and is one of the most significant brands for modern drywall solutions in the German market. The company is part of the international Saint-Gobain Group.

In a nutshell: Rigips® – for better building for the benefit of people and the environment.
