During his year-long term as president, his priorities include highlighting bitumen’s credentials as a sustainable construction material; ensuring Eurobitume continues to meet the needs of its members and stakeholders in a dynamic environment; and supporting the delivery of the 2nd E&E Event, which will take place in Vienna in November 2022.

He will also focus upon the importance of effective communications, so that the voice of the bitumen industry is heard, and continue to position Eurobitume as the first reference for bitumen in Europe.
