Dow Corning Names Peter Vert as Global Market Manager for Polyurethane Additives Business
MIDLAND, MICHIGAN, USA: Dow Corning Paper & Process Industries group recently named Peter Vert as its new global market manager for the company's Polyurethane Additives Business.
Vert has been with Dow Corning since 1997 and replaces Christian Velasquez, who has moved into a commercial management role within the company. Vert previously worked in Dow Corning's Pressure Sensitive Industry, where he was an application engineer for both release coatings and pressure sensitive adhesives.
