SFS says it has appointed a highly experienced business development manager to provide original equipment manufacturers (OEM) for the roofing and cladding sector with a single point of contact. The business development manager will match their panel systems with the most suitable fastening solutions.
Craig Smith is said to bring three decades of experience in the roofing and cladding industry to the role and joins SFS from Saint-Gobain’s specialist insulation and dry lining distribution business, where he was national sales manager.
Craig will further strengthen SFS’s relationships with OEMs, as well as build new partnerships, to help system manufacturers and installers provide clients with the highest quality building envelopes. By helping OEMs to access SFS’s new product development expertise and technical support, Craig will reportedly be instrumental in ensuring the right solution can be developed to meet the ever-growing creativity and technical complexity that drives new panel designs.
David Wigglesworth, the UK managing director at SFS added: “We’re delighted that Craig has joined our team. His wealth of experience and deep understanding of why the fastener design must be correct to achieve the best result for the building envelope will potentially prove extremely valuable to our OEM customers.”
