Caitec has hired Richard Nornhold, as vice president of Operations. Nornhold joins Caitec from Johnson & Johnson and, previously, Energizer Personal Care. He brings many years of experience in global manufacturing, automation and business in the consumer products industry.

Nornhold’s role at Caitec will include the ownership of all operations in the U.S. and in China. In his role he will be responsible for new product development and continuous improvement efforts for all three of Caitec’s business segments (Bird, Dog and OEM). He will be working with the company’s customer base over the coming months, as Caitec transitions to a new ERP system and as the company installs new project management tools for better service. He will also be spearheading a Lean/5S implementation within the U.S. Operations, with a later implementation planned for operations in China.

“Please join me in welcoming Rich to the Caitec family, and we look forward to the next level of company growth through increased efficiency and better systems to support our customers,” Caitec Corporation President Terry Gao said.
