Peter Jarl has passed away
After a long illness, Peter Jarl passed away on Saturday, 6 February. During a long term as the Head of the Swedish recycling business, Peter became both a successful company manager and a much appreciated colleague. 
Peter Jarl came from ESAB in 1984, and he was CEO for Stena Gotthard Återvinning until 2002. He remained at Stena Metall until 2006, when he retired on pension.

 

"Stena has lost a much loved colleague and our thoughts are with Peter's relatives, his wife, Lena, and his son, Kristoffer, and family. Over the years, Peter became a strong and appreciated figure, not just for Stena Gotthard Återvinning, as it was then, but for all the Swedish recycling industry," says Anders Jansson, CEO for Stena Metall.

 

Some thoughts on Peter Jarl from the organization:

 

Lars Abrahamsson, Metall Manager, Stena Recycling:

"Peter was an all-round colleague who without problem could find the balance between seriousness and good humor at work. He has meant a great deal for Stena's development. It is a few years since Peter left Stena, but you still hear a lot of good things about him around the organization.

 

Steve Eriksson, Site Manager, Stena Recycling:

"He was very considerate to customers, suppliers and colleagues. Peter was always one-step in front and he solved problems before conflicts developed. When he visited the branches he always went round and greeted everyone, he was a great symbol of the Stena spirit. He was also extremely knowledgeable about the industry and brilliant at calculating and analyzing. He always had time for us and his door was always open."

 

Ulf Heimer, former Head of Personnel, Stena Metall:

"Peter was fantastic, both as a person and as a boss. He often visited the branches - he knew everyone and everyone knew him. He was also fun, an extraordinary source of joy and a teller of stories. I only heard good things about Peter during all the years at Stena."

 

John Lindqvist, CFO, Stena Metall:

"Peter was a great personality in many ways. He was not just an exceedingly good businessman, he was also well informed and social - and earned great respect from the whole organization. He always had time to talk with anyone who wanted to. There was many a good laugh shared with Peter."

 

Per-Martin Schedwin, Head of Human Resources, Stena Metall:

"Peter was an exceptionally intelligent person and moreover an inspired storyteller and entertainer, with objectivity and a good pinch of humor. Peter was known and appreciated by the entire recycling industry and personified what is good with our business acumen."
