When Philippe Laplace joined ViskoTeepak in 2025 as Sales & Technical Manager, it wasn't his first encounter with the company. For more than 20 years, he had already known and worked with ViskoTeepak casings from the customer's perspective. Today, he combines that technical background with a customer-focused role, helping existing customers overcome production challenges while developing new business opportunities.
For Philippe, success starts with understanding the customer's reality.
“It is important to take the time to run trials and fully understand the technical and production constraints of each product and customer. Being present in the field is essential to truly understand their needs and respond appropriately.”
Although he brought decades of industry experience with him, joining ViskoTeepak has also been an opportunity to keep learning. From gaining a deeper understanding of how Fibrous and Wienie-Pak casings are manufactured to collaborating with colleagues across the company, Philippe continues to expand both his technical knowledge and his international experience.
Looking ahead, he is motivated by continuous development—both for himself and for the customers he supports.
“My goal is to bring my production and technical knowledge to the company while continuing to learn more about Fibrous casings and their many possibilities.”
