Paul Massyn will joined plumbing equipment manufacturer Altecnic as general office manager in the new year.
The firm has supplied thermostatic and pressure control valves, pressure vessels, flues and other specialist equipment, to the UK's plumbing market for the past 18 years.

Many of their product lines are UK market leaders and can be found in buildings such as the Gherkin aka the Swiss Re Tower in London.

Altecnic is based at Hixon in Staffordshire and has 68 employees.

Paul has worked in the plumbing and heating industry for more than thirteen years and will leave his residence in South Africa to take up his new post.

Altecnic also revealed its new corporate identity at the start of November. Managing Director Stuart Gizzi said 'We wanted our corporate image to evolve, in exactly the same way that we have grown our business'.
