The board of directors of EskoArtwork has concluded a comprehensive integration process, initiated one year ago, with the merger of Esko and Artwork Systems.


Operations, staff and distribution channels from the former companies have been aligned and combined. Turning its focus now towards the next steps in the company's development, EskoArtwork's board of directors have decided to make some changes at the executive management and board level.


Guido Van der Schueren, currently executive management board member and chief commercial officer, has been appointed to non-executive vice chairman of the board, reporting to EskoArtwork's chairman, Jean-Claude Deschamps. Van der Schueren will relinquish his executive activities and will concentrate on strategic projects and related board matters. Carsten Knudsen, president and CEO, remains an executive board member and assumes the leadership of EskoArtwork's management team. The changes are effective as of August 1, 2008.
