Mircoban International Ltd., global player in unique antimicrobial solution design for polymers, textiles, and coatings, has announced the expansion of its global textiles business team in Asia, Europe, and the US, to relaunch its global textile business, bringing in additional assets to strengthen and manage its customer relationships and product offerings.
The company has appointed Thomas Case as director of business development for textiles, Zsolt Huszágh as head of textile business development in Europe, Dr. Lance Li as senior formulations chemist, Jerry Wang as regional director of Asia Textile Services, and Simon Zhao as senior technical engineer and business development specialist, to its global textiles team.
As the director of business development for textiles, Case is responsible for the Microban and Aegis brands in the Western US, Central America, and Mexico. He targets marketing and materials innovation executives of leading active wear, apparel and footwear brands, and coordinates programs globally with customer mill partners and Microban teams.
With 20 years of experience in B2B industry sales, marketing and business development, combined with his knowledge of the textile industry, Huszágh will be responsible for leading business development in Europe.
Collaborating with the R&D teams, engineering groups and testing laboratories, Dr. Li will develop technologies and protocols to assess the performance of surface treatments. He designs new, or improves existing, liquid base coating formulations that keep surfaces cleaner through the reduction of bacteria, odours and soils.
Working with Asian textile mills, Microban R&D, Microban sales and distribution partners, Wang will leverage his expertise in textile processing through integration of Microban odour control solutions into customer textile products. He provides local technical support to Asian textile mills that apply Microban odour control finishes to fabrics, yarn, and fibres.
Zhao has been with Microban since 2013, and will take on additional responsibilities in his new role, providing technical sales support to China based brands and manufacturers, while continuing to work technically with apparel customers throughout Asia. (GK)
