Smart building materials company ClearVue Technologies has tapped Martin Deil as its Chief Executive Officer as the company looks to expand its global footprint with a focus on the US and European markets.
The ASX-listed company said Deil brings to ClearVue an extensive understanding of the international façade and architectural envelopes markets, having spent the previous 22 years in various senior management roles of increasing importance within the Permasteelisa Group.
Deil’s most recent position was as CEO of Permasteelisa UK, where he oversaw 100 workers and was responsible for AUD 285 million in annual revenue.
Prior to joining Permasteelisa UK, he was Senior Vice President Gartner-Permasteelisa North America in New York, COO and Deputy CEO of Permasteelisa North America in Connecticut, and Deputy CEO of Greater China Permasteelisa Group in Hong Kong.
He has also served as Corporate Sustainability and Quality Director for the Permasteelisa Group, based in Vittorio Veneto, Italy.
Among other major strategic roles, he has held the position of Managing Director of Josef Gartner UK.
The Perth-based company said this key appointment comes on the heels of recent industry-focused Board and senior management appointments such as Gerd Hoenicke and Charles ‘Chuck’ Mowrey as Non-Executive Directors and Clifton Smyth as Chief Business Development Officer.
Victor Rosenberg, Non-Executive Chairman of ClearVue, commented on the recent appointment.
“ClearVue’s Board and management are thrilled to be able to announce the appointment of our new CEO, Martin Deil, a globally experienced and recognised leader with a remarkable industry focus,” Rosenberg said.
He added, “With an extensive background in the global façade and building envelope industry, Martin brings a wealth of knowledge and a proven track record of driving success in highly competitive markets around the world.”
The ClearVue official also expressed his confidence that Deil’s leadership would help the company further establish and enhance our position as a leading player in the developing window-integrated photovoltaics industry and open up new opportunities for our company and stakeholders.
Meanwhile, ClearVue CEO, Martin Deil, expressed his excitement about joining the team.
“It is with great excitement that I embark on this journey with such a talented and dedicated team. I am genuinely impressed by the Company’s achievements thus far and the strong foundation that has been established,” Deil remarked.
The new CEO also said he considers it an honour to be able to work for a company that can significantly reduce carbon emissions in the construction industry.
He pointed out that construction is responsible for a startling 39 per cent of worldwide carbon emissions, with new construction accounting for 11 per cent of those emissions.
ClearVue said Deil will take the role beginning 1 June 2023.
