New Leadership at Worthington Building Products

New Leadership at Worthington Building Products



COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Building Products division at Worthington Enterprises Inc. has named new members to its global leadership team as the company expands its liquid petroleum gas (LPG) cylinder portfolio and extends its reach.

Warren Patterson is global vice president of enterprise development for Building Products, with responsibility for innovation, transformation, and growth. Patterson joined Worthington in July with more than 13 years of experience in the LPG industry, along with global operations, commercial, and business development experience from various roles at other firms.

Tiago Oliveira will begin the role of global vice president of product development for Building Products, with responsibility for new product development, product innovation and related processes, and technology investments, including internet of things (IoT). Oliveira has been general manager of the Amtrol-Alfa business at Worthington since 2017.

“The addition of Warren Patterson and elevation of Tiago Oliveira deepens our competitive advantage and will help enable us to achieve our global growth aspirations,” said Jimmy Bowes, president, Building Products, in a press release. “Warren’s experience in global propane and his ability to create strategic partnerships accelerates our growth trajectory. Tiago will help ensure we have a unified approach across our research and development and technology efforts in pursuit of innovative and transformative solutions for our customers.”

As part of its global structure with the integration of Norway-based Hexagon Ragasco, the Building Products segment created a Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) leadership team responsible for growth and operations in the region. Worthington, which acquired Hexagon Ragasco in June, will retain the Ragasco name.

Skjalg Stavheim, who has been with Ragasco since its founding in 1996 and led the business as president for the last 11 years, will become vice president, EMEA, Building Products, in January.

Idun Kristine Fridtun, who has been with Ragasco since 2014, most recently as chief financial officer and executive vice president responsible for finance, human resources, and information technology, will become general manager of the Ragasco business in January.

Worthington Enterprises also serves EMEA and other regions via its Portugal-based Amtrol-Alfa business.

Filipe Pedrosa, who has been chief commercial officer since 2017, will lead Amtrol-Alfa as general manager beginning in January. Pedrosa has been with the business for 26 years.

Frédéric Gaussen, who has been vice president of sales and marketing for Ragasco since joining the business in 2012, will expand his responsibilities to include Amtrol-Alfa’s LPG products. Gaussen will be responsible for overseeing and coordinating LPG sales and marketing strategies for Worthington throughout EMEA and other developing regions.
