New President and CEO at Astec Industries, Inc.

Published: 30/9, 2019

Astec Industries, Inc., announces the appointment of Barry Ruffalo as its President and Chief Executive Officer.

Ruffalo comes to Astec from Valmont Industries, a publicly-traded diversified global producer of highly-engineered fabricated metal products. He served in Group President roles since 2016, following a stint as Valmont's Executive Vice President, Operational Excellence. Ruffalo has also worked for Lindsay Corporation, a global leader in proprietary water management and road infrastructure products and services.

After a comprehensive search that included a number of highly qualified candidates, we are excited to hire Barry, said Bill Gehl, Chairman of Astec. He is a leader that has driven change, understands infrastructure and will add tremendous value.

I am excited to join Astec as its CEO and a member of the Board of Directors, said Ruffalo. I look forward to moving forward with measures to make Astec more profitable and agile while building on the strength of its world-class products.

With Ruffalo's appointment, Richard Dorris, Interim Chief Executive Officer, has resumed his role as the company's Chief Operating Officer.
