ALLENTOWN, PA — The Board of Directors of Taylor-Wharton International, LLC (TWI) today announced it has appointed Bill Corbin, a current board member, as chairman and interim chief executive officer, effective immediately. Mr. Corbin replaces Robert E. Gadomski, who is retiring as chairman and CEO for family health reasons. Mr. Gadomski will continue as a consultant to the company and a member of the Board of Directors. The Company has retained an executive recruiting firm to conduct a national search for a permanent CEO.
Mr. Corbin has served on TWI’s Board of Directors since its acquisition in December 2007 by Wind Point Partners, a leading private equity firm.

Bob and I have worked closely on a number of initiatives, including TWI’s strategic planning, which will help ensure a seamless transition.
