TRELLEBORG APPOINTS NEW REGIONAL PRESIDENT FOR THE U.S.

Following his success as Regional Director for the Middle East and Africa, in which he won Trelleborg the largest ever contract for fender systems, Paul has moved over to take on the president''s role in the U.S. to establish the company''s new manufacturing and business development facility in Berryville, Virginia.

All employees from Trelleborg''s previous site in Clear Brook, Virginia, have now made the move to operate from Berryville and Paul Welling, previously regional director for the Middle East and Africa has moved over to take on the regional president''s role in the U.S.

Richard Hepworth, President of Trelleborg Marine Systems, says: “Paul has a great deal of experience in project management and business development, as well as extensive knowledge and understanding of the foam and rubber fender markets. Given Paul''s success in his previous roles, we look forward to him steering our activities in the U.S.”

Paul, who has worked for Trelleborg''s marine operation for nearly 10 years, will head up the company''s new facility in Berryville. He will drive manufacturing excellence initiatives at the site, ensuring the sustainable and efficient manufacture of the innovative solutions that Trelleborg specializes in. Paul will take over the day-to-day management of the site: overseeing safety and production, whilst ensuring the U.S. operation is well positioned to meet ever-growing customer demand. Also taking responsibility for business development in the region, Paul will work closely with customers on individual projects to deliver the customized solutions that Trelleborg are known for.

Paul says: “I''m looking forward to taking on this new challenge within the business and getting to know the people at Trelleborg in a different region. Business in the States is done very differently to the Middle East and I''m looking forward to getting to know our customers in the region and working with them to develop solutions that best fit their project requirements.”
