Riccardo Cossu to lead the EMEA market and Laure Sénéquier-Crozet to lead the Senfa Cilander division
Paris, April 16, 2025 – Chargeurs PCC, leading global manufacturer of textiles, interlining, and inner components for apparel, continues to strengthen its global leadership with the appointment of new executives in strategic positions: Riccardo Cossu as General Manager EMEA of Chargeurs PCC and Laure Sénéquier-Crozet as General Manager of the Senfa Cilander division.
The company therefore continues the path of growth and innovation, consolidating its presence in the textile-clothing and coating sectors. The new appointments are an integral part of this evolution and are designed to create a more agile and effective organization, helping to optimise processes and support the global development and consolidation strategy.
In particular, the appointment of Riccardo Cossu is strategic in stimulating growth in a dynamic and competitive market, where international know-how and experience, especially in the field of films and bonding tapes and inner components, play an increasingly crucial role. Similarly, the addition of Laure Sénéquier-Crozet is expected to enhance the Senfa Cilander business unit’s performance, taking advantage of new technologies and the wealth of expertise developed through Cilander’s recent acquisitions.
Alongside these crucial appointments, the executive team has been strengthened with Dmitry Fedorov as Deputy CIO for Chargeurs PCC and Claudia Rovati and Elisabetta Nicoli as Global Sales Director and Supply Chain Manager of the Shirting Division, which includes the fabric brands Alumo, Brennet and Eugster & Huber.
“These appointments align with our strategy to differentiate ourselves in the textile-clothing, technical fabrics and coating industry through unique know-how and a broad product offering of the highest quality and best performance.” – Declares Gianluca Tanzi, CEO and Chairman of Chargeurs PCC – “We aim to offer increasingly cutting-edge solutions and customised customer service. The introduction of these new executives with solid global experience will be decisive in advancing our ambitious growth strategy and consolidating Chargeurs PCC’s leading position.”
Last year, Chargeurs PCC completed the acquisition of two business units of the renowned company Cilander, internationally celebrated for its expertise in the supply of high-end fabrics, Swiss traditional excellence, and finishing solutions for complex materials. These assets, which range from top-of-the-line shirting fabrics to outdoor textiles and innovative finishing options, represent a fundamental added value for the further expansion and diversification of the company’s offerings.
