As a key element in its recent investment and re-structuring programme, geotextile company Terram Ltd has just appointed Dougie Black as its sales director responsible for both UK and international sales.
Dougie brings with him a wealth of experience in international sales and marketing, with a number of major companies in related building products fields. Most recently, he has worked with Liquid Plastics Ltd., Hyflex Roofing and Grace Construction Products, driving and motivating sales teams in the UK, Europe and further afield in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Common to all companies has been the exclusion and control of water in construction and civil engineering projects, skills highly relevant to Terram.
Commenting on his new position with Terram, Dougie Black said, “I have been exposed to Terram as a generic brand throughout my career and I am delighted to be joining the company to develop the brand further in global markets".
He adds, “ One of our major objectives will be to increase our market exposure through our distributor network and our exposure to the end user in both specification and design. We will also be closely addressing the global environmental challenge and plan to soon introduce Terram innovations into this arena".
As one of the world leaders in geotextiles, Terram has offices in Germany and France and has a strong presence in the Middle East. At its manufacturing facility in Pontypool, South Wales, Terram produces a range of geotextiles, geosynthethics and other technical textiles for a variety of applications.
