The European Council of Vinyl Manufacturers (ECVM) and VinylPlus, the sustainability program of the European PVC industry, have a new face at the helm: In the future, Dr. Karl-Martin Schellerer, Managing Director of Westlake Vinnolit, will continue to drive the industry’s sustainability efforts at European level.

He succeeds Stefan Sommer, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Vynova Holding. Dr. Karl-Martin Schellerer has already been heavily involved in the boards of ECVM and VinylPlus since 2018.

VinylPlus aims to make the entire PVC value chain even more sustainable and further improve the circularity of PVC products.
