New plant manager at Karsdorf

24 May 2017

Germany: Opterra, the German subsidiary of Ireland’s CRH, has announced a change of plant manager at its Karsdorf plant. Berthold Perschall, 50, will take over from Giuseppe De Donno on 1 June 2017. De Donno has been in the post since July 2015 and has left the company to pursue a new professional challenge.

Perschall has been with CRH (and Lafarge beforehand) since 2000. Before coming to the Karsdorf plant in 2009 he worked at Lafarge’s Sötenich and Wössingen plants. He was most recently the head of maintenance and production at Karsdorf.

Opterra Zement’s Karsdorf plant to be sold to Schwenk Zement

09 March 2017

Germany: Schwenk Zement has been confirmed as the buyer of Opterra Zement’s Karsdorf cement plant. The transaction remains subject to the Germany competition body and this is expected to take up to six months, according to the Naumburger Tageblatt newspaper. Employees are reportedly ‘concerned’ about the acquisition because Schwenk Zement operates its Bernburg plant in the same state, Saxony-Anhalt. The deal also includes a cement grinding plant.
