Roger Palamarczuk, a senior sales engineer, has been with the company since 2012. He has had a long and distinguished career in the HVAC sector working with the likes of Eaton Williams and Worsley, and also spent time working abroad in South Africa.

Recent areas Mr Palamarczuk was involved with at Humidity Solutions included offshore oil rigs, providing humidity for the accommodation blocks on sites in Canada and Azerbaijan, and the food industry, which is a growing market for humidity control. 

Also retiring is Barry Barnes, who joined Humidity Solutions in May 2013 as finance manager and has been instrumental in managing the financial aspects of the company’s continued growth. Years ago, Mr Barnes worked in West Sussex with Mr Barker; Lindsey Henderson (co-founder and sales director at Humidity Solutions) and Rob Luddington (after-sales director), before the four colleagues went their separate ways and Mr Barnes settled in London's West End working for a multi-national construction consultancy company. Eventually, however, Mr Barker persuaded Mr Barnes to join Humidity Solutions, bringing the team back together once more.

Corrine Harrison joined the company in August this year to work with Mr Barnes, and will be stepping into his role.

Mr Barker commented: “We are extremely grateful to Roger and Barry for all their hard work and commitment to our team, and wish them both a very long, productive and enjoyable retirement”.
