Growth For Global Fluid Technology Company With New Appointment
Continued growth at global fluid technology company Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) is the catalyst for a series of positive changes to the Company’s European and Middle East (EME) management structure.
WMFTG has announced the appointment of Rainer Schmid as Regional Sales Manager for Central Europe. Mr Schmid’s role has been created as the Company has defined new regions in order to ensure sustainable growth. He will be responsible for sales across Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia.
Initially, Mr Schmid’s main focus will be on direct sales, although he will become increasingly involved in Non-Group Export sales through distributors and other third parties in the region.
Rainer Schmid, who will be based in Hamburg, joins WMFTG with over 20 years of senior business management experience in the Industrial, Energy and Food and Beverage sectors.
In addition to his global sales experience within SPX Flow Corp., he has previously been responsible for manufacturing operations in Europe for US food manufacturing equipment maker Tipper Tie Inc.
“This is an exciting new development,” says Rachel Pallett Sales and Marketing Director – Europe and Middle East. “The opportunities that closer regional collaboration will bring over the coming years will be significant as we continue to invest in direct sales, develop our key sectors and expand the WMFTG product range. We look forward to the benefit that Rainer’s wealth of experience will bring to our customers and our business. “

About us
Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) peristaltic tube and hose pumps meet requirements including: value for money; low cost of ownership; reliability and ease of maintenance to the food and beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, mining and many other industries.
We demonstrate how pumps deliver significant process efficiencies over the lifetime of the equipment. Whether performing flavouring addition in food processing, chemical metering in water treatment or mineral recovery, we have a solution which can cut pump downtime and reduce costs through higher accuracy metering and transfer. WMFTG has dedicated application engineers available to help customers make the right pump and tubing choice from a range providing microlitres per minute to 80 cubic metres per hour flow rates.
The only part of the pump to come into contact with the product is the tube or hose. This means there are no seals or valves that can wear or fail. Replacing the tube or hose can be performed quickly and safely. Peristaltic pump benefits include:
Total fluid containment with no seals No ancillaries Handle viscous and abrasive slurries and sludge Self-priming capability Dry running without damage to the pump In addition to their range of positive displacement pumps, Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group has added PTFE-lined chemical and industrial hoses to their range. Aflex hoses are reinforced to withstand the most severe conditions and use.
