GLASPUNT APPOINTS FRANS DITMER AS MANAGING DIRECTOR
Arnhem, November 3rd 2026
Glaspunt, part of the Cire Invest portfolio, has appointed Frans Ditmer as Managing Director. With more than 25 years of experience in commercial leadership, strategic partnerships and delivering sustainable growth, he will lead Glaspunt into its next phase of growth and professionalisation.
Building partner networks and digital collaboration
Frans previously held positions at companies including Fixico, Geevers Auto Parts and ALSO Nederland. There, he built successful partner networks and worked with digital platforms that connect customers, partners and service providers. He brings this combination of strong relationships and smart digital solutions to Glaspunt.
The partner of choice for insurers, property owners and homeowners’ associations
In the coming years, Glaspunt will focus on further strengthening its nationwide services. The company is investing in partnerships with insurers, property owners and homeowners’ associations (VvEs), among others, and is responding to the opportunities created by making buildings more sustainable. Quality, craftsmanship and customer satisfaction will remain central.
“Glaspunt has a strong foundation: craftsmanship, a trusted name and a team that knows what service means,” says Frans Ditmer. “Over the coming years, I will build on that together with the entire team. We want to become the partner of choice for insurers, property owners and homeowners’ associations, and play a visible role in making buildings more sustainable. Smart digital collaboration with our partners is key to this. We can only succeed if everyone at Glaspunt runs the business as if it were their own.”
Building further growth
With Frans on board, Glaspunt is taking the next step in realising its ambitions. Together with shareholder Cire Invest, the company is focusing on further professionalisation, strengthening its market position and seizing new growth opportunities. Cire Invest supports Glaspunt with strategic expertise, entrepreneurship and investment capacity.
Bas Cornelissen, Cire Invest: “Glaspunt holds a strong position in a market full of opportunities. Our ambition is to build on that position in the coming years and grow Glaspunt into an even stronger, leading player. In Frans, we have brought on board an experienced and entrepreneurial director who can take the organisation into its next phase. We look forward to realising these ambitions together with him and the team.”
