The Producto Group Appoints New Member to Board of Directors

The Producto Group, a manufacturer of high-precision round tooling, complex precision machined components and assemblies and heavy-gauge custom plastic enclosures, has appointed Dean Schauer as the newest member of its board of directors.

“We are delighted to welcome Dean to our Board of Directors,” says Adam Cook, non-executive chairman of Producto and chief investment officer of Culper Capital Partners. “Dean’s overwhelming success as a leader in the MedTech industry is well documented and he will make an immediate impact on our company and team. Our CEO, COO, Board Member Declan Smyth (president of franchise at Viant Medical) and Dean all have deep roots in the medical device space.”

Schauer will continue in his current role as the CEO and president of Confluent Medical Technologies, a position he has held since 2013. Prior to Confluent, he held the position of executive vice president and general manager for Accellent’s cardiovascular business. Schauer has also advanced from prior leadership roles over his career.

“I am thrilled to join The Producto Group’s board,” Schauer says. “The company’s growth trajectory, value proposition to its customers and the thought of partnering with Adam, Declan and the rest of the team made my decision to do this pretty easy. I look forward to some exciting days ahead.”
