David C. Dennsteadt<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Dennsteadt joined RPM\u2019s Stonhard business in 1995 as an engineer, holding a variety of leadership roles, ultimately serving as group president of RPM\u2019s Performance Coatings Group (PCG) from 2018 to 2025, where he delivered consistent growth and record results. He was elected RPM executive vice president in 2025, overseeing all corporate administrative functions. His global perspective, gained from years of leadership in Europe and the Middle East and in establishing RPM\u2019s Platform Group approach to strengthening the company\u2019s position in emerging markets, has been instrumental in driving strategic growth across RPM\u2019s portfolio. In his new role, Dennsteadt will add responsibility for strategy and oversight of RPM\u2019s operating groups, as well as corporate development activities. Dennsteadt holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in civil engineering from Rutgers University and an MBA from New York University\u2019s Stern School of Business.<\/p>\n

RPM chairman and CEO Frank Sullivan stated, \u201cDave has consistently demonstrated the leadership and strategic vision that RPM needs as we continue to grow. His impact has gone well beyond PCG by having the foresight to drive greater coordination and efficiency across RPM\u2019s international operations, and create a new approach to shared services, anchored by the centers he established in Mexico and India that now support the entire company. I\u2019m confident he will bring that same discipline and vision to his expanded role as we build a stronger, more connected RPM.\u201d<\/p>\n
