Brian Chalmers to lead Heidelberg sales in Scotland

The Scottish print industry has recovered strongly in the last 18 months, according to Heidelbverg, which has recently reported the installation of a Speedmaster SX 74-5 at Pandaprint, a Speedmaster SX 52-5 at Cowan Print, Polars for D.E.N.A. Screenprint and Multiprint (Scotland), plus renewal of its Heidelberg ISO12647-2 color certification by 21 Colour. 

Heidelberg said Chalmers brings with him extensive graphic arts experience, from both a supplier and printer perspective. He is a time served litho printer who sold consumables and pre-press equipment for 15 years before moving to a finishing supplier.

‘This is a great opportunity to join the market leader with its broad portfolio of products,’ Chalmers said.

Phil Buttress, sales manager at Heidelberg UK, said: ‘Derek Kenney has represented Heidelberg well for 17 years and we wish him all the best for the future. 

‘Brian has a strong industry background. He is joining an effective team supporting customers in Scotland and will bring a fresh approach.’
