LONDON (Alliance News) - Polypipe Group PLC Thursday said Senior Independent Director Ron Marsh will become its new chairman on May 27, replacing Alan Thomson who had announced he was stepping down nearly a year ago.
Marsh was appointed to the board of Polypipe last March. He is also a non-executive director of British Polythene Industries PLC and was, from 1989 until 2013, chief executive of RPC Group. He's also chairman of the UK-based Packaging Federation.
"I am very pleased that Ron has agreed to step up to the chairman role, he brings a wealth of industrial experience to the Board. As senior independent director he is very familiar with our business and I look forward to working with him as Polypipe develops as a public company. I would like to thank Alan for his invaluable guidance as chairman over the last seven years," Chief executive David Hall said in a statement.
