Rottneros announced that President and Chief Executive Officer Lennart Eberleh has resigned and will leave the company during the first half of 2026 to take up a position outside the Group.
The Board has initiated a process to recruit his successor.
Eberleh has led Rottneros since 2016, overseeing a period marked by a sharper strategic focus and improved operational efficiency.

Eberleh will remain in his role during the transition period to ensure leadership continuity while the recruitment process proceeds.
