"Knowing that more than seven decades of excellence precedes me, it is an honor to move into this leadership role," said Kleppek. "During the last couple of years, our Jorgensen team exceeded everyone's expectations by being a resource to develop innovative solutions for our customers. My plan is to share our work with companies who need a partner like Jorgensen that provides seamless and complete solutions."
