On September 1, 2025, Sébastien Schaal took over as managing director of Grünperga Papier GmbH, succeeding Sabine Karl.

Ms. Karl had a significant impact on the company: she successfully headed up sales from 2001 before moving into management in 2022. Her departure marks the end of a long and influential era at the company.

Sébastien Schaal, an experienced business manager, is taking over the reins. He comes from the hygiene and nonwovens sector and brings fresh ideas and a clear strategic focus on the future.
