RIGIPS consolidates its sales leadership team
Andreas Heidrich
Andreas Heidrich took over as Sales Director on 15 November 2024, with overall responsibility for area sales in Germany. This consolidation of the sales leadership team is a key step for RIGIPS. The aim is to adapt the sales organisation to changing markets and continue developing a forward-looking organisation. A particular focus will be on technical sales, with a new sales management position being created next year.
In his new role, Andreas Heidrich will continue to report directly to Danijel Lučić, Managing Director of Sales & Marketing. This will enable quick decision-making in dynamic markets. Additionally, strategic sales exchanges will be established with other Saint-Gobain Group brands to promote the group's solutions for modern construction.

RIGIPS. You have the 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 – building better for people and the environment.
