SGL Carbon appoints Dr. Denis Hinz as new Head of the Business Unit Carbon Fibers

As of March 1, 2024, Dr. Denis Hinz will become new Head of SGL Carbons Carbon Fibers Business Unit. The previous Head, Roland Nowicki, will leave SGL Carbon on May 31, 2024 at his own request to pursue new professional challenges. He will be available to the company as a consultant until his leaving date to support a smooth transition.

Roland Nowicki took over as Head of Carbon Fibers in November 2020 and has successfully driven forward the realignment of the business unit over the past three years. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Roland Nowicki for the exemplary cooperation and his extraordinary achievements for SGL and wish him all the best for his future, both professionally and privately. At the same time, we would like to congratulate Dr. Denis Hinz on his new position, emphasizes Dr. Torsten Derr, CEO of SGL Carbon SE.

Dr. Denis Hinz has been with SGL Carbon for more than six years and has held various management positions during this time, including Head of Operations of the Fuel Cell Components division and Managing Director of SGL Fuel Cell Components GmbH in Meitingen since December 1, 2021. The graduate engineer from the Technical University of Munich is an experienced manager who is well networked within SGL Carbon and has closely followed the development of Carbon Fibers in recent years.

The Carbon Fibers Business Unit has great and innovative products for attractive and sustainable markets. Unfortunately, our largest market, the wind industry, is currently in a serious crisis, which has also affected Carbon Fibers. We are facing a number of challenges in the coming months, and I am looking forward to tackling these with my colleagues, explains Dr. Denis Hinz, new Head of Business Unit Carbon Fibers.
