Weitmann & Konrad GmbH & Co. KG (WEKO), a South German manufacturer of non-contact liquid application systems, has expanded its sales team and added a project manager.

Tobias Schurr joined the WEKO sales team as sales manager for the international market in June 2017 and is the main contact person for customers and interested parties. With his many years of experience as a technical sales and service manager, he also gives support to the sales management as part of his tasks. The goals of the 39 year-old are to drive the company’s further expansion in the growth sectors of digital printing, packaging and technical textiles and to develop new fields of application for minimal and non-contact liquid application.

Mark Jones became a technical sales engineer at WEKO on August 1, 2017, and is responsible for building up and developing the on-trend sectors, e.g. technical textiles, nonwovens and plastic film, for the U.K. He contributes his 25 years of experience in the sale of electrostatic control instruments and will also support the sales of HAUG GmbH & Co. KG in the U.K.

Carolin Russ joined WEKO in 2016 to work on her master thesis and is in charge of various individual projects in the fields of textiles and nonwovens. Due to her high level of expertise, she was employed permanently as a project manager for textiles and nonwovens as of October 1, 2017, in order to initiate and accompany the continuous development of new applications in those areas. With her university degree in textile technology and many years of professional experience in the textile industry, she is perfectly qualified for offering successful product design and process consulting to WEKO’s customers.
