Specialist distributor Encon Insulation has boosted its industrial/HVAC division for the second time in as many months.

Just two months after appointing Steve Moorhouse as the new Yorkshire and North West business development manager, the company has recruited Mary Carthy as industrial manager for the West Midlands, working from Encon’s Birmingham branch.

Mary has 27 years’ expertise in the insulation sector. She started with Kitsons Insulation as a stock controller before becoming office manager. She was then approached to start up an independent business in Birmingham, MC Insulations, and built that up over the next 12 years to merge with four other independents to become GRM.
