Danfoss has declared that Rogerio Federici will take over as head of Danfoss Turbocor Compressors on January 1, 2025. He replaces Ricardo Schneider, who will transition to retirement after 32 years at Danfoss, including 16 years as President of Turbocor. Schneider will remain as an Executive Advisor to aid the transition.
Federici, currently leading Sales & Marketing for Turbocor, steps into the role with 28 years of expertise at Danfoss. “Rogerio’s appointment reflects our commitment to ensuring seamless leadership transitions and continued growth,” noted Kristian Strand, President, Commercial Compressors at Danfoss.
