ITL grows team in North America

David Bohn has joined as business development manager for North America, with Patrick McManus named as technical sales manager for its operations in the region.

Bohn (pictured, right) is a 27-year veteran of the printing and graphic arts industries, with market experience attained in senior sales management roles with Praxair Surface Technologies, Interactive Inks & Coating and IST America.

McManus (pictured, left) brings 35 years of experience in the North American print and graphics sector. He is a former director for installation project management in North America for German press maker manroland.

In October 2013, ITL and IST Metz started on a program developing complementary technologies offered through cooperative sales and marketing initiatives to expand sales in the North American market, and these appointments have been made to complement that plan.

ITL global sales director David Johnson said: ‘The North American market is one of the most dynamic and important to both of our companies.

‘Sharing physical resources of administration, technical support, warehousing, and research and development is a natural extension of our alliance and a core component in our mutual bid to increase market share in the region.

‘That bid requires the expertise, guidance and support of seasoned professionals and I am delighted we have David and Patrick helping realize our aims and aspirations.’
