Andre Steinman
After a fulfilling 25 year career with Caframo and a 36 year career selling and marketing scientific lab equipment, Marta will retire February 28, 2023. Marta’s contributions over the years have been many. She has been the guiding and driving force behind many projects that have built not only the lab business and the credibility of the Caframo brand, but also deep and influential relationships with our channel partners, industry associations and end user groups.

Marta has provided insights for the full line of overhead stirrer products that make up the Caframo lab business today, has built a team of professionals that provide exemplary customer service and technical support to all customers that our business truly values and has helped develop and support the corporate strategies that focus on a great place to work, growing the business, serving customers and supporting Caframo employees.

Marta’s influence and impact has been felt and enjoyed beyond the Caframo lab business as she is an untiring advocate for improving both the Caframo employee experience and the company’s reputation in the community.

Marta is committed to a smooth transition of her duties and we are very happy to announce that Andre Steinman has been promoted to the Director, Business Development role for the Caframo Laboratory Products Division. Marta hired Andre in 2006. Andre knows this business, our products, our customers, the Caframo brand and the team. This transition ensures the continuity and commitment that the Caframo lab business and you as a customer are in good hands.

Congratulations Andre and Caframo wishes Marta all the best in all she does in her retirement.

Andre Steinman, now Director of Business Development, Caframo Laboratory Products Division, is excited to contribute in a new way to the positive growth trajectory.
