"We thank Zlatko for his contributions and strong results during his tenure as CEO. He and his team have developed Mölnlycke into an even stronger company that will continue to enable safer, more efficient and more sustainable care," says Thomas Kidane, Co-Head of Patricia Industries.

"We are pleased to have Guillaume Joucla serve as interim CEO, responsible for taking the company forward in line with the current strategy. Guillaume has an excellent track record and extensive experience serving almost 20 years in the company, most recently in his role as CFO," says Mölnlycke Chair Karl-Henrik Sundström.
