Ex-CASE Construction global president Carl Gustaf Göransson’s latest challenge is to revitalise the world’s oldest metal recycling company – LINDEMANN. Like his machines that convert scrap back into valuable metals, Göransson is a skilled transformer.
Having navigated through various industrial sectors, from construction and agricultural equipment, to trucks, Carl Gustaf Göransson has established a reputation for innovation and reinvention – as well as an envied understanding of what makes global capital equipment markets tick. And now this laid-back and approachable Swede has a new challenge…
