AKRON—Tire specialty chemicals supplier Flexsys has named Sandip Tyagi as its new CEO, effective April 4.
Formerly the tire additives business of Eastman Chemical Co., Flexsys was acquired by an affiliate of One Rock Capital Partners in November last year.
Tyagi is tasked to execute the newly independent company's "growth-oriented strategy," Flexsys said in a March 21 statement.
Tyagi has nearly three decades of relevant experience supplying to multiple industries including automotive, electronics, healthcare, aviation/aerospace and infrastructure, according to Flexsys.
Most recently, he served as president and general manager of the formulated specialties division of Momentive, where he ran a global business and oversaw its Korea operations.
Prior to Momentive, he held various roles with GE Silicones.
