Gregg Greulich
Industry supplier HSM (formerly Hickory Springs Mfg. Co.) has hired Gregg Greulich as corporate vice president of innovation and technology, a new position for the company.
In the role, Greulich is responsible for overseeing implementation of the company’s strategic goals, including the development of a portfolio of integrated products across HSM’s four business units—Transportation Solutions, Bedding Solutions, Furniture Solutions and Diversified Solutions.
Greulich has 12 years of management experience in engineering and research and development. Previously, he was senior director of engineering, tooling and program management at Evenflo Co. Inc., where he served on a global management team with leadership responsibility for durable product programs. He also has held management posts with Maytag Corp., Sunbeam Products Inc. and Whirlpool Corp.
“Welcoming Gregg to our team is the next step in our efforts to build out our engineering and research and development capabilities,” said Dwayne Welch, executive vice president and chief marketing and innovation officer. “Last year, we opened the Corporate Innovation and Research Center, which provides a setting for customers and vendors to work collaboratively on new products, programs and services while enabling HSM to leverage its expertise and respond rapidly to changing customer and market demands. Today, the outstanding qualities and experience Gregg brings to his position will further enhance that capability, contributing to growth at HSM by improving our ability to offer HSM customers the latest materials and manufacturing techniques, helping them achieve their design visions while supporting our transition from a components manufacturer to an integrated solutions provider.”
Greulich reports to Welch.
