Kawneer has named Sneh Kumar the director of global sustainability. He will develop and lead the company’s sustainability strategy, focusing on product design and certification, along with supply chain transparency and optimization.
Kumar has spent more than 20 years in the manufacturing industry. Before his new role, Kumar was a product manager for Kawneer’s curtainwall, window wall, sun control and finishes, where he differentiated the company’s curtainwall portfolio with seismic testing.
