This last May, Rubén Aparicio-Mourelo, head of the CESVIMAP paintwork department, and Andrés Jiménez, a technician from the same department, visited the ITW (www.itw.com) installations in Bournemouth (United Kingdom), where they were accompanied by Tomás Permetei, in charge of large accounts for ITW in Spain and Portugal, and Juan José Sánchez, sales technician for Mab Industrial (www.mabindustrial.es), the exclusive importer for Spain.

Nick Scorey, in charge of European business, gave an introduction to the company, focussing on the fundamental elements of the finishing division (www.itweuropeanfinishing.com). Following this, there was a presentation so that the heads of department from ITW, amongst whom was Barry Holt, the division’s vice-president, could become acquainted with CESVIMAP’s activity in research and training. The CESVIMAP representatives were then accompanied by Mark Peach, product engineer, on a tour of the installations, to get first hand knowledge of the manufacturing processes for Devilbiss pieces of equipment.

The day’s activity ended with a presentation on new aspects of regulation related to application equipment, given by John Rogers, in charge of R+D, and the brand’s new products and campaigns, with the participation of Ian Bunker, in charge of marketing, and Guy Hallard, in charge of sales for Europe.
