UK-based Friedheim International has welcomed back John Harrison as National Sales Manager to their Converting Division. “John’s name is already synonymous with Friedheim and Converting,” says Friedheim’s Managing Director, Mark Bristow. “He was the Converting Manager three years ago and after some very successful installations we said goodbye to him because he wanted to branch out into the Digital arena. In his move to HP and later Komori, he gained invaluable experience in greater appreciation of the workflow due to the increasing efficiencies of the digital presses, creating pressures at the finishing end of the workflow.”
At Friedheim, Harrison takes over from Roger Cartwright in the coming months, while current projects are finalised and handed over. He will be responsible for Converting solutions for the folding carton, corrugated, POS/display and commercial print industries within the UK and Ireland and is responsible for the following product range: Duran (Folder gluers for carton and corrugated), Kama (Short run die cutters and folder gluers), Stock (Sheet/reel fed litho laminating and sheeting equipment), Kohmann (Window patching, pick and place, HQ print checking) and Lasercomb (Digital cutting tables and die-making equipment).
