Andy Laird has been appointed as national sales manager for Birmingham based ExtrudaSeal.
Andy brings with him a wealth of experience, having spent 25 years working in the fenestration industry. Prior to joining ExtrudaSeal, he worked for one of the main aluminium profile extruders.
According to ExtrudaSeal, the newly created role will see Andy travelling around the country, talking to aluminium fabricators about how they can save money and lower production costs by ‘cutting out the middle-man’ when purchasing gaskets and weather seals. Raising the company profile and driving growth, Andy will also look after ExtrudaSeal’s existing clients, ensuring that customers are supported and the efficiency of the supply chain is maintained as volumes increase.
Andy commented: “I’m delighted to be joining ExtrudaSeal at such exciting times. The aluminium sector is growing rapidly, keeping fabricators very busy. With such a buoyant market, more and more PVC-U companies are diversifying their business by taking up aluminium manufacturing, and we’re here to help protect their profit margins.”
ExtrudaSeal managing director, Chris Byers, said: “Andy will be based in Cardiff, strengthening our presence in the South West, but his role as a national sales manager will see him travelling across the UK to existing and potential customers. He’s already made a huge difference to our business and we’re very pleased to have him on board.”
