In recent years, the traditional management functions within the Hettich Group have been subject to increasing change, with many tasks being taken over by specialists or networks. This change has significantly strengthened Hettich as a company.

In light of this, Sascha Groß has decided to hand over his responsibilities to his colleagues from 2025 and to pursue a new career outside the Hettich Group. During his 20 years at Hettich, Sascha Groß has made a particularly valuable contribution to the expansion of the international production sites and, in the last seven years, has played a major role in the strategic development of the Hettich Group on a global level. "We are very grateful for the journey we have taken together, the successes we have achieved and the lessons we have learned from each other, and we wish Sascha Groß all the best for his future plans," says Dr Andreas Hettich, Chairman of the Advisory Board and shareholder of the
Hettich Group.

The outgoing Sascha Groß sums up his position as follows: "This is a very personal step that I have not taken lightly after my many years with Hettich - but it reflects my desire to explore new avenues and develop both professionally and personally. I firmly believe that this decision is in line with the values we live by at Hettich: trust, personal responsibility and creative drive. I know that the global management team is committed to continuing to enable and promote these values."

At Hettich, all colleagues around the world will continue to do their utmost to focus on customer needs and to further develop the many-to-many (management) culture. The customers of the Hettich Group will retain their established Hettich and FGV contacts and can continue to rely on the value proposition of both brands.
