EuroAPI Appoints Ludwig de Mot as Chief Transformation Officer

EuroAPI has appointed Ludwig de Mot as chief transformation officer and executive vice president (EVP).

He will focus on accelerating the company’s transformation, including the completion and execution of the strategic review initiated in the fourth quarter of 2023 that spans the entire spectrum of EuroAPI’s organization, including the assessment of its current product portfolio, cost structure, and balance sheet, the company said in a statement.

A graduate of KU Leuven University in Belgium, de Mot, a Belgian national, worked for SCA Packaging between 1996 and 2006. He then joined lime and mineral-based products and solutions producer Lhoist, where he held several executive positions until 2017. De Mot also served as CEO for various international companies undergoing transformation, including ArcelorMittal Mining in Canada, McBride in the UK, Swissport in Switzerland and, more recently, Tereos in France. Since May 2022, Ludwig de Mot has been the chair of the Board of ESCO Couplings and Transmissions in Belgium and is also a member of the board of directors of Canada’s Graymont and VPK Packaging in Belgium.
