The Swiss specialist for electrical insulation systems is launching a new entity for the fast-growing e‑mobility segment. Jens Lange, who previously held management positions at Mitsubishi Electric B.V. and Borg Warner Inc., will become Managing Director of Von Roll Automotive, headquartered in Augsburg, Germany.

As the world market leader in this field, Von Roll has outstanding products and expertise. I am therefore convinced that we can make a significant contribution to making our customers’ motors more efficient and longer-lasting.”
