SALFORD, England—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE:LXFR) (“Luxfer Group”) today announced the appointment of Dr. Brian Kushner as an additional non-executive director on its board of directors.

Dr. Kushner, who holds a doctorate in applied and engineering physics from Cornell University, was co-founder of CXO LLC, a management consulting firm headquartered in Austin, Texas.

Over the past two decades, he has served as chief executive, chief restructuring officer or director of more than 20 public and private technology, manufacturing, telecom and defense companies.

Dr. Kushner currently serves as a director and chair of the audit committee of Everyware Global, the parent company of the Oneida and Anchor Hocking brands. He is also a member of the executive committee of the Advisory Council of the College of Natural Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin; chairman of the Physics Advisory Council at the University of Texas at Austin; and a member of the Engineering College Council at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY.
