TUBEX Holding announced the appointment of Cornelius Grupp as new CEO. He is taking over from his father Dr. Cornelius Grupp, who will assume the position of the supervisory board chairman.  

The history of the TUBEX Group spans more than seven decades. Founded in 1946 in Germany, the company has been guided from the outset by its high entrepreneurial values and commitment to the environment and a circular economy. These continue to be the driving force behind its sustainable growth and innovative spirit  today.  

Under the leadership of Dr. Cornelius Grupp, the TUBEX Group has grown to become a leading global provider of aluminium tubes and aerosol cans. With a sustainability-focused portfolio that uses real post consumer recycled aluminium in its Neucan 3.1 and Blue Tube Evo alloy, TUBEX is raising the bar by reducing  emissions and prioritising true circularity.  

After 23 years of successfully leading the TUBEX Group, Dr. Cornelius Grupp is now passing on the management to his son, Cornelius Grupp.  

Cornelius Grupp has been part of TUBEX Group management since 2018, when he took charge of the American subsidiary C-Care in Baltimore. In 2022, he played a pivotal role in establishing TUBEX’s contract  manufacturing division in collaboration with German subsidiary CTA. As CEO of the TUBEX Group, he will  continue to oversee this division.  

“I will dedicate all my efforts to ensuring the continued success of the TUBEX Group, and am proud to be  able to carry on its 75-year corporate history,” Cornelius Grupp said.

“I am handing over the leadership of the TUBEX Group to my son with great confidence in him and his  entrepreneurial abilities,” added Dr. Cornelius Grupp  

Working with the CEOs of the business units, Cornelius Grupp will continue to focus on delivering operational excellence and outstanding customer service. He is committed to driving growth and to ensuring TUBEX  maintains its leading position in the aluminium packaging industry.  

The transition will keep the company under the leadership of the founding family. So as well as marking a new beginning, it will also provide continuity for TUBEX employees, customers, and suppliers.
