ViscoTec Announces Leadership Change

After 23 years with the company, Martin Stadler, technical managing director at ViscoTec, is leaving. ViscoTec reports that overall responsibility will be assumed with immediate effect by Franz Kamhuber, the previous commercial managing director. The transition ensures continuity and stability in the management of the company.
Stadler joined the then fledgling company in the early 2000s as its 21st employee. Since then, ViscoTec has developed into a global specialist in dosing technology. Today, the company employs more than 350 people and its turnover has increased more than ten-fold during this period. “Such development is the result of people with courage, vision, and enthusiasm for their work,” Stadler reflected.
Stadler had a decisive influence on the technical orientation of ViscoTec, from the continuous expansion of the product portfolio and the development of innovative degassing systems to the ongoing optimization of complex dispensing processes. “I am grateful to have witnessed and helped shape this development. The credit goes to everyone who contributed to it.”
During a farewell ceremony for Stadler, Commercial Director Franz Kamhuber paid tribute to the technical expertise and understanding of process engineering demonstrated by his long-standing colleague, Stadler. For many years, the technical managing director was a central point of contact for technical questions, from product development and the design of complete plants to the analysis of running systems.
Kamhuber explained that Stadler’s clear, direct communication and consistent cost awareness had a lasting impact on the company. One of his most important guiding principles was to always make decisions with a view to achieving a balanced cost-benefit ratio. Kamhuber also emphasized his colleague’s down-to-earth attitude: despite strong growth and international success, Stadler has always remained approachable and has placed great value on open doors, professional exchange, and collaborative work.
Kamhuber expressed his gratitude for the trusting and successful cooperation and emphasized how much the company had benefited from his colleague’s technical expertise and leadership.
ViscoTec also announced that with the departure of the technical managing director, the two division managers Josef Donislreiter and Florian Wagner, have been granted individual power of attorney. Together with the commercial managing director, they will form the management board in the future and steer the fortunes of the company in close coordination. ViscoTec is thus focusing on a clear distribution of tasks, short decision-making paths, and close integration of commercial and operational responsibilities.
