Huddersfield-based Polyseam has appointed Neil Smith as international sales manager with the task of recruiting resellers to support sales of its Graft range of sealants and adhesives and its Protecta passive fire protection products.

Mr Smith said: “Graft has had a great response since we launched it earlier this year and we believe that there is a real opportunity for the range in some of the burgeoning overseas markets.

“We are particularly interested in exploring the possibilities in Eastern Europe and South Africa. Our fire protection range is already a market leader in Northern Europe which gives us a good platform from which we can develop.”

Based in Moldgreen, Polyseam has been developing and manufacturing sealants and adhesives for 20 years and employs more than 30 people.

The Protecta range includes sealants, collars, wraps and boards that help to ensure that both new builds and refurbished properties meet the latest requirements for air, sound and fire insulation.

The firm is also active in the Northern European market where its passive fire protection products are the market leaders.
