Altecnic’s technical director Gary Perry and trade sales director Chris Ramster have both been appointed to the company’s Board of Directors, to drive forward new strategies and further strengthen Altecnic’s position as the UK’s leading supplier of quality plumbing equipment.

Since cutting his teeth in the industry at 16 as an apprentice plumber, Gary Perry (39) has played a major role in Altecnic’s development over the last 14 years, honing both his practical experience and technical expertise.

Chris Ramster (45) joined Altecnic in June, bringing more than 20 years experience in the industry, and is spearheading its customer-focused sales team by building on the company’s reputation for quality and professionalism.

Altecnic’s managing director Alan Sherwin said: “Bringing Chris and Gary onto the Board is another step forward in our plans to build on the success of the Altecnic brand. We have a strong range of accredited, quality products, that we know are well respected by the industry and Gary’s expertise will ensure new product development is at the heart of our strategy going forward. Our commitment to renewables and the environment led to us being the first company to be officially certified as carbon neutral, and Chris’ focus on customer service should ensure that we continue to break new ground in the market.”
