Günther Hoyt to Advise Repton on Trade and Plastics

Günther Hoyt, president of Günther Hoyt Associates will be serving as an advisor for The Repton Group on plastics industry matters worldwide. The former Xaloy executive vice president is well known within the industry as an expert in plastics machinery, equipment and machine components.

Hoyt spearheaded establishment and expansion of distribution networks and direct sales operations in North America, Europe, Japan, China and other Asian countries. In the U.S., where Xaloy previously sold its barrels and screws almost exclusively to OEM’s, he set up and directed a network of agents to market machine components directly to processors.  He also played a key role on business teams that recommended and built Xaloy’s sales and service operation in Japan and its manufacturing, engineering and customer service facility in Thailand. 

In addition to having extensive contacts in Europe and Asia, Hoyt has made many friends and contacts in his years as a leader in the U.S. plastics industry. He has chaired the (U.S.) Society of the Plastics Industry’s (SPI) Machinery Division, the NPE show and the Plastics USA show, and he was a member of the SPI Board of Directors from 1987 to 2007. He is an elected member of the Plastics Pioneers. 

With over 30 years in the plastics industry and connections throughout the world, Günther Hoyt Associates and The Repton Group can offer customers guidance in international joint ventures, building export sales and acquiring assets.
