Kalogon Names Paul Banz Vice President of Sales

Melbourne, Florida—Kalogon, a smart seating solutions company, announced the appointment of Paul Banz as vice president of sales. The hire comes on the heels of the company’s recent opening of a new 20,000-square-foot production facility.

Banz brings more than two decades of sales leadership experience in the complex rehab technology sector, most recently serving as managing director of export sales group for Etac Group, where he oversaw international sales for multiple brands, including Ki Mobility, Axiom, Star, Hovertech, MoLift, R82, Immedia and Etac’s wheelchair, bathroom products and ADL lines. 

“Paul’s appointment marks an important milestone in Kalogon’s growth trajectory,” said Tim Balz, CEO and founder of Kalogon. “We’ve built incredible momentum over the past year, tripling our medical revenue and opening a state-of-the-art production facility to meet surging demand. Paul’s experience scaling sales operations in complex rehab technology, combined with his international market expertise, will be instrumental as we expand our presence in North America, Australia and Europe. This hire also allows our leadership team to sharpen its focus on the core functions that will drive our next phase of growth.”

Based in Stevens Point, Wis., Banz will report directly to Balz and oversee Kalogon’s territory sales managers and independent representative network. His immediate priorities include driving sales strategies and revenue growth across new and existing product lines, with a goal of tripling revenue in 2026. He will also expand Kalogon’s international footprint, building on the company’s existing distribution partnership in Australia and establishing new channels in Canada and Europe.

“The vision, level of technological innovation and talent assembled at Kalogon is incredible,” said Banz. “Kalogon is poised to reinvent the CRT [complex rehab therapy] industry, and the opportunity to build a world-class sales organization around its products is exactly the kind of challenge I’ve been looking for.”
