Solenal GmbH named well-known hospitality industry insider, H. David Murray, as Chairman & CEO of the Solenal Americas® organization. Solenal® Board Chairman, Klaus-Peter Drexel said, “We have been overwhelmed with our success in the European market, with many hotels already disinfecting using the Solenal® brand. In order to develop the North American market, we needed to make a total commitment to not only sales but production of the Solenal® brand in North America. In Dave Murray, we found the right person to provide both a marketing and manufacturing background to develop a similar footprint to what we have built in Europe."
“In order for the hospitality and cruise line markets – really all markets - to return to some level of normalcy, people need to feel safe and secure. This is “job 1”. Solenal® provides the products that are much needed right now to help our world to return to normal, and I am humbled to be the person chosen to lead this effort”, commented Murray. “Our first focus will be on obtaining the necessary government approvals in all three of North America’s major countries.”
Murray will turn over his role as President & CEO of MGroup™, one of the most specified brand standard products for interior furnishings, in December to focus full time on the development of Solenal Americas® and has accepted the position to lead Solenal Americas® for a salary of $1/year. He will maintain oversight of MGroup’s™ growing brand standards and hospitality business in Europe which is under Arne Augustinussen, Director of European Operations at MGroup™.
