Michael Karpe is taking over the baton from his predecessor Josep Roger, who is retiring after 25 successful years at GEZOLAN and the KRAIBURG Group. For GEZOLAN, this staff-wise development means continuity in the management, as Michael Karpe has been part of the GEZOLAN management team since the beginning of 2023.
Michael Karpe has been with GEZOLAN since 2017 and has played a key role in shaping the company’s positive development in his previous roles. From his many years at GEZOLAN and other companies in the sports and leisure flooring sector, Michael Karpe also knows the industry and its challenges inside out.

GEZOLAN and KRAIBURG Holding are confident that Michael Karpe will successfully and consistently continue the outstanding work of his predecessor in his new role. To ensure a smooth transition, Michael Karpe and Josep Roger will work closely together in the first quarter of 2025.
