John R "Jack" Lewis is the new President and Chief Executive Officer of DuPont Dow Elastomers.

John R "Jack" Lewis is the new President and Chief Executive Officer of DuPont Dow Elastomers - the global joint venture between The Dow Chemical Company and The DuPont Company, succeeding Theo G Krapels, who has retired after nearly 30 years of service.

Lewis, formerly Vice President, Asia Growth Initiatives, DuPont Performance Coatings, assumed the position this week.

"Jack's extensive experience in automotive and polymers businesses plus the perspective of his European and Asia assignments makes him an excellent choice to lead the DuPont Dow Elastomers joint venture", said Richard R Goodmanson, Chairman of the DuPont Dow Elastomers Members Committee governing board.

Lewis joined DuPont in 1965 as a chemist and in his 38 year career with DuPont held a variety of key management assignments including leadership roles in DuPont Engineering Polymers and DuPont Performance Coatings strategic business units in both the USA and Europe.

His recent roles included Vice President and General Manager for Europe/Asia, Global Director Automotive Finishes and Director of Engineering Materials for Engineering Polymers.
