Recently CORUS RD&T announced that following the appointment of Kees Gerretse as Director Designate Supplies & Transport of Corus with effect from 1st April 2005, he will be succeeded from that date, as Director R&D Products & Applications and as Site Manager IJmuiden Technology Centre, by Arjan van den Hoogen, currently Department Manager Rolling Metal Strip. It is further the intention is to appoint Arjan as Director of Corus Technology BV.


During the 151st Joint Committee meeting held in Velsen Noord last week (14th and 15th March), Arjan informed his colleagues, that due to these new responsibilities, he will resign immediately his Chairmanship of the Dutch Flame Research Committee – the NVV – and consequently his membership of the IFRF Board of Directors, the Joint Committee.

Arjan was warmly congratulated by his colleagues and thanked for the effort he has made in his time with the Joint Committee, particularly for his role with the Financial Monitoring Group.  We look forward to hearing news of his successor.
