Twin-Star International has named Robert Cohen chief executive officer.

Cohen spent 11 years with Armstrong World Inds., culminating in his role as president and CEO of Armstrong Cabinet Products. Under his leadership the company posted record revenues and collected three J.D. Power awards for the industry's highest customer satisfaction. Previous experience includes positions at Procter & Gamble, American Airlines, and Sunbeam Corp.

"It's a great honor to be joining the Twin-Star team," Cohen said. "The company is the clear market leader in terms of product design and customer service and I look forward to building on that success."

Cohen's addition will allow company founder Mark Asofsky to focus on continuing to create new market leading product designs as well as focus on business development while serving as co-chairman for the company.

"Rob's appointment adds to what I believe is the one of best management teams in the industry," Asofsky said. "With such a strong team in place I felt this was the right time to take a step back and focus on my true passion, product design. I am also excited to have more time to focus on the charitable activities of the Asofsky Family Foundation."
