Nordson Corporation has appointed Jie Hu as sales manager in China for the Nordson Extrusion Dies Industries fluid coating product line.

Hu’s previously served as regional marketing and sales manager for the Hangzhou-based subsidiary of Erhardt+Leimer

He will be responsible for sales of the full range of fluid coating products for applying water- or solvent-based coatings, including Premier fixed-lip and Ultracoat flexible-lip slot dies, die positioners, and fluid delivery systems.

Hu’s previously served as regional marketing and sales manager for the Hangzhou-based subsidiary of Erhardt+Leimer. He has also held positions with companies in the fields of adhesive coating and printing. Besides his native Chinese, Hu speaks English and German.

‘Jie’s sales and marketing experience with products for paper, film and nonwoven web converting will enable him to provide valuable service to our customers in China,’ said Jason Yin, country general manager for extrusion. ‘He will be particularly helpful to companies that are considering the advantages of slot die coating as a more precise and efficient alternative to conventional application methods such as roll coating.’
