Prof. Dr. Klaus Müller took over the management of the CHT Group as sole Managing Director on November 20, 2023. Mr. Müller has been supporting the company for many years in a supervisory role via the Beitlich Family Foundation. He has now relinquished this position to take over the operational management of the CHT Group.

The CHT Group, which has been based in Tübingen since 1953 and operates in the chemical industry, is sharpening the social, ecological and economic sustainability goals it has set itself and is facing up to the pressing social and regulatory challenges of our time. In the course of ongoing efforts to transform and focus more strongly on sustainability, it was determined that a realignment of the management level was necessary in order to achieve the goals set more effectively. This decision reflects the CHT Group's continuous adaptation, changing market conditions and commitment to continuous improvement. The realignment of the management team is also necessary to achieve the transformation.




The CHT Group stands for continuity and reliability even in times of change. Mr. Müller is taking over the management of a strategically and financially sound group of companies.

Together with the experienced managers and committed employees, the successful and sustainable relationships with our customers, suppliers and partners will be continued and expanded in the long term.
