SMA Mineral is pleased to announce the appointment of Viktor Nilsson as Chief Transformation Officer (CTRO) and Programme Manager for ZEQL. He will assume his position on the company’s management team with immediate effect.

Viktor has been with SMA Mineral for several years and has held various roles closely linked to the company’s technology and development work. In his new role, he will be responsible for the ZEQL programme, a key component of the Group’s innovation and sustainability efforts.

This makes it particularly motivating to now be involved in leading the next phase of our transition. I am excited to continue developing SMA Mineral and, working with the team and our partners, to take significant steps for the future of the lime industry,” says Viktor Nilsson.
