Conrad Hauser joined Hauser Plas Tech in 1965 after attending Loyola University in Chicago, where he majored in Business Administration. He served as Hauser Plas Tech’s VP of sales and marketing, primarily responsible for most of the company’s relationships with its customers, according to a bio on Xten’s website.
   
In 1998, Conrad succeeded his brother, Norbert Hauser, as president of Hauser Plas Tech. When Hauser Plas Tech was purchased and became Xten Industries in 2000, Conrad remained the main contact for all customers, serving as Xten’s VP of sales and actively pursuing new business while maintaining the customer relationships he developed throughout his long career.
