Jean-Paul Mindermann is born in 1965 and is of Spanish and German nationalities.

I am personally excited to have the opportunity to continue the successful development of Trelleborg Industrial Solutions together with Jean-Paul," says Peter Nilsson, President and CEO of Trelleborg.
"It is with great pleasure that I have accepted this assignment. I am committed to taking on this new responsibility, leveraging experience from other parts of the Group," says Jean-Paul Mindermann.

"I would like to thank Mikael for the solid work that he has done for the business area and for the Group.

I am sorry to see Mikael leave, but I do of course wish him all the best in his new role," concludes Peter Nilsson.
