Calhoun, GA, September 9, 2024-Mohawk announced the promotion of Mauro Vandini as president of the company’s global ceramic segment, effective September 15. 

Vandini will also maintain his present role as president of Mohawk’s European ceramic business with the support of his team.

Vandini’s career began with Marazzi Group in 1983, and he subsequently worked as Marazzi’s technical director and vice president of international operations before serving as CEO of Marazzi Group.
