National Timber Systems (NTS) has appointed Philip Carney as its national technical and commercial manager to oversee the growth of its Rapid Fit ‘roof in the roof’ system, NYTROOF.
Philip joins the company with more than three decades of experience within the timber and engineered wood products markets. He introduced engineered joists to national housebuilders more than 20 years ago and most recently worked at the British Board of Agrément (BBA) and The Building Research Establishment (BRE).
Philip will now be responsible for developing the product portfolio and the market for NYTROOF, as well as encouraging more housebuilders and construction companies to adopt modern methods of construction to maximise space within the house.
He will also be supporting the introduction of a supply and fit service that will be offered alongside NYTROOF. This will utilise a network of national installers that can complete up to four roofs a day and significantly reduce build programmes for housebuilders.
Commenting on his new role, Philip said: “I’m delighted to have joined National Timber Systems. It is expanding very quickly thanks to its high-quality proposition and ever-increasing capacity. We have already developed a new roof concept, which I’m looking forward to helping NTS introduce to our expanding customer base.”
Nick Kershaw, managing director at NTS, added: “Philip is a fantastic addition to the team. NYTROOF is a market-leading product and with Philip dedicated to its development, I’m confident we’ll have a great deal more success which will benefit our customers.”
