Jürgen Kleinrath

Experienced executive with a proven, managerial track record spanning a diversity of fields, including the international chemical, packaging & paper and power & gas industries. As the CEO of the foam specialist NEVEON, I take immense pride in leading a company, which through its products and services enhances the quality of everyday life for people across the globe. Innovation and sustainability are my driving passions and I am convinced that our path to a better future depends upon continuous qualitative advances, disruptive thinking and venturing beyond conventional boundaries. I firmly believe that employees constitute the cornerstone of any successful organization and consequently, I regard the fostering of a vibrant corporate culture as being of the utmost importance. I am also of the opinion that true leadership involves the guidance of each individual towards the realization of his or her full potential. For me, providing support and being there for others is not merely a responsibility, but instead an integral part of my identity in both my professional and personal life. Apart from strategic skills and hard work, having a good sense of humor is a key element in my approach to leadership in the corporate world. Shared laughter both encourages team bonding and assists the creation of a positive work environment. Personally I draw inspiration from my long endurance sports activities such as ultra-distance road cycling , which not only present physical challenges, but also teach invaluable lessons for life. The world of sports has instilled an understanding in me that systematic preparation and effective teamwork form the bedrock of success. An insight, that translates seamlessly into my role as NEVEON’s CEO.
