US based X-Rite, which owns colour standards company Pantone LLC, has named Ron Voigt as president of the operating company. Voigt is in line to replace Tom Vacchiano following his retirement as president of X-Rite in March.
“Over the last several years, X-Rite and its subsidiary Pantone have become high performing businesses and global leaders in our industry. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time as part of this team, and now is the right moment for me to pursue a new course and let X-Rite grow with new leadership,” said Vacchiano. “I’m confident that Ron Voigt will help X-Rite remain a global industry leader, realise its full growth potential and continue to deliver quality color science and technology products that meet the needs of current and future customers.”
“Ron brings with him great experience as a global business leader in service and technology companies,” added Danaher Corporation Executive Vice President Dan Daniel. “It’s great to have him join the X-Rite team and I look forward to working with him as he leads the company into the future.”
