Official retirement farewell at ENTEX

On 19 January 2026, Sebastian Rust, CEO of ENTEX Rust & Mitschke GmbH, bid farewell to his employee Michael Batton as he entered his well-deserved retirement. He was happy to do so on behalf of the entire workforce.

Michael W. Batton worked for ENTEX for almost a quarter of a century, primarily focusing on the Asian market, especially China and Japan, in his role as sales engineer and director.

Due to his American citizenship, Michael W. Batton also served the US market together with our US representative, TRIAD Sales LLC in South Carolina.

We will miss his collegiality and constant good humour. We would like to take this opportunity to thank him once again.
As a passionate golfer, he can now continue to improve his handicap. We wish him and his family all the best for this new chapter in their lives.
