Henkel of America Moves to Connecticut
Jason Sandefur
Henkel of America Inc. relocated its North American corporate headquarters from Gulph Mills, PA, to Rocky Hill, CT. effective July 1, 2008. The move, effective July 1, 2008, created about 80 new jobs in the state, including finance, human resources, legal, and chief administrative officer positions. When the move is completed, Henkel will employ approximately 430 people in Rocky Hill.
The new address is 1001 Trout Brook Crossing, Rocky Hill, CT 06067-3910. Tel: 860 571-5100 Fax 860 571-5465
Henkel’s Adhesive Technologies business is also headquartered in Rocky Hill.
“Relocating our corporate headquarters to Rocky Hill makes sense for our growing business in North America,” said newly appointed president Jeff Piccolomini. “We wanted to keep our headquarters in an Eastern time zone location to communicate with our global headquarters in Germany more easily.”
Piccolomini was named president of Henkel of America Inc. effective July 1. He joined the company in 1980 and has held several financial and business positions in North America, including his most recent position as senior vice president of finance.
Parent company Henkel is a Fortune Global 500 company headquartered in D�sseldorf, Germany, with more than 53,000 employees worldwide and sales of EUR 13.07 billion (US$20.85 billion). Henkel’s products include Loctite and other adhesives, sealants and surface treatments for the automotive, electronics, aerospace, metal, assembly, consumer goods, packaging and maintenance and repair industries.
