Maurice is a global manufacturing executive with over 30 years of experience. He is currently Chairman of Avkem International, a supplier of chemicals and equipment for the metals industry. Additionally, as the founder of MWM Global Partners, Maurice has completed numerous turnaround, acquisition, integration, carve-out and sale projects in sectors including engineered products, chemicals and basic materials. Prior to MWM, Maurice was the CEO of PPC Insulators, a global manufacturer of high-voltage insulators with manufacturing operations in eight countries. Earlier in his career, Maurice spent 15 years at Morgan Crucible. He received his BS in Engineering from Queen’s University in Kingston, Canada and completed a program on International Management at IMD in Lausanne, Switzerland.

“We are thrilled to welcome Abel and Maurice to Turnspire,” said Managing Partner Ilya Koffman. “Both were closely involved in our recent acquisition of United Plastics Group and will bring invaluable experience to the Turnspire portfolio and to future investments. With our growing team, we look forward to continuing to execute the Turnspire strategy of acquiring high-quality companies, both healthy and distressed, with significant opportunities to create value through operational improvements.”
