AR Metallizing

Bart Devos began working at AR Metallizing in 2013, and in the years since has been praised for his dynamic leadership as CEO. The company, the global leader in metallised papers and boards, serves a variety of global clients and brewers, including AB InBev, Carlsberg, Heineken and Starbucks. In recent years, Devos has successfully risen to many challenges: as the wider industry has struggled to adapt to changing consumer demands, he has tripled the scope of the company’s operations, successfully expanding its global footprint and introducing industry-changing innovations. Today, AR Metallizing’s core focus is on sustainability, innovation, globalisation and product portfolio diversification.
