Dr. Frank Schaum, 54, took over the Label division (Gallus) of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) in Sankt Gallen, Switzerland in March, succeeding Christof Naier, who left the company at his own request.
Schaum started his professional career at Heidelberg in 1992 as a product developer.
Between 2014 and 2018, he was responsible for the post press division, among other things. All of the company's activities relating to sheet punching, folding box gluing, inspection systems for folding boxes, as well as folding and cutting are bundled in one organization.
Most recently, he worked for the Heidelberg Group in corporate development. At the beginning of March, he took over responsibility for the Label division, which is reflected in the Gallus brand.
“It is my goal to evolve the brand Gallus with its products and services in the growing market of label business. In doing so, we consistently will continue to pursue our way of digitization and we will provide our customers with sustainable support in the development of their individual business models," Schaum said. “We stand by our customers during the current crisis and we will do everything possible thus they can continue operating successfully in their markets.”
