The board of directors of Transor Filter USA and board chairman emeritus, Irv Kaage, has appointed Johan Svensson as president.

Most recently, Svensson has been managing director of the European office in Alvesta, Sweden. Re-locating to the U.S., Svensson will be responsible for overseeing all North American operations at Transor Filter USA including sales, manufacturing and assembly of units in their Chicago suburban facility. He will also be responsible for coordinating sales and service activities with the directors of Transor’s global offices located in Brazil, Japan, Germany and South Korea.

“I’m looking forward to meeting all of Transor’s current customers,” said Svensson, “as well as working with our sales and engineering teams, and OEM partners throughout North America.”

“Johan brings with him decades of experience in the filtration business,” continued Kaage. “His technical understanding of the needs of Transors’ key markets will enable us to continue to provide the cost-effect filtration solutions that has made Transor a global leader.”
