Walker to Lead Compressor Products International
EnPro Industries Inc. has named Kenneth Walker, president of its Engineered Products Segment, to the additional position as president of Compressor Products International (CPI).
He replaces former CPI President Anthony Gioffredi, who has resigned. Walker, who joined EnPro in 2001, became president of the Engineered Products Segment in August after serving as president of EnPro’s GGB Bearing Technology.
Gioffredi moved to CPI in 2003, when he was named vice president and general manager. Previously, he was vice president of operations for EnPro’s Fairbanks Morse Engine (FME) business. In 2006, he was promoted to president of CPI and given dual responsibility as president of FME, which he retained through August 2013.
Steve Macadam, EnPro president and CEO, said that under Gioffredi, “CPI has been transformed from a small part of our company seven years ago into a major operation today. As CPI grew through acquisition, Tony worked diligently in the face of unexpectedly weak markets to integrate the acquisitions into a cohesive unit. I’m confident his effort leaves CPI well positioned to reach our long-term objectives for its performance.”
