New manufacturing director
February 2018

SYNSEAL GROUP has appointed Robert Long as Manufacturing Director for Synseal’s PVC-U and aluminium production at its main Huthwaite site.

Rob joins from the Whittan Group, manufacturer of steel storage products, where he spent 18 months as Operations Manager consolidating the footprint of a £110m turnover part of its business. Before this, he was six years at Eurocell as General Manager and before that at Tarmac.

He will oversee Synseal’s extrusion operations, as well as production of its conservatory roof products and fabricated WarmCore and Evolve ranges.

His appointment follows that of Chief Operating Officer Mark Timmons as part of a new team dedicated to updating the Group’s manufacturing processes to support the continued growth of products like the WarmCore aluminium range, which now includes onsite production of the inline patio door. 

Rob said of his appointment: “I’m excited to be joining Synseal to help drive through a number of key changes in their manufacturing operations, including the substantial investment they are making in a new, modern warehouse management system.

“I will be working alongside some extremely skilled and increasingly motivated colleagues so am delighted to be part of the team. We will look to implement a continually improving work culture and embed some key organisational principles as we strive to offer the best service to our customers.”
