Founder & Managing Director
Sebastian Horbach
With a background as an industrial mechanic followed by studies in mechanical engineering and polymer technology, Sebastian Horbach combines hands-on manufacturing experience with in-depth process engineering expertise. After roles in the automotive industry in injection moulding, material development and innovation, he spent 14 years with the SIMONA Group, most recently as Head of Global Process Development.
In this role, his responsibilities included process development, innovation, global CAPEX and engineering design. In addition to developing and optimising extrusion processes, his responsibilities included hands-on engineering tasks. Complete roll-stack systems were designed, assembled and integrated into extrusion lines under his responsibility.
For more than ten years, he has also been involved in the engineering and implementation of complete extrusion lines with machinery and component suppliers from Europe and China – from technical specification and supplier selection/development through implementation at the production site.
This combination of process engineering, line engineering and global sourcing is a core foundation of Extrusion Evolution today.
