Thomas Bechtel

Global Sales Director, Packaging and Medical

During his studies, Thomas started within the injection molding industry working as a toolmaker for complex technical plastic parts.

In 1997, he started his professional career at Husky Injection Molding Systems. The initial focus was on hot runner service which then evolved into project management and direct sales responsibilities.

With the increasing focus on turnkey systems, Thomas started to concentrate on injection molding machines and auxiliaries for the packaging business. During this time, he gained a deep understanding in the driving factors for producers and converters.

A three-year assignment to a leading European toolmaker for the caps and closures industry allowed Thomas to further expand his knowledge in tool and plastics part design, achieving a deep understanding of the interaction of injection molding hardware and its impact on beverage package functionality and costing.

Thomas joined Mold-Masters in January 2017 as the sales director of medical and packaging.
