HERMA self-adhesive materials: Further expansion of international sales

• Jens Glatz reinforces sales and support team for Austria, Scandinavia and South America.
• Alberto Pons appointed new commercial agent for Spain.

Self-adhesive materials specialist HERMA continues to focus sharply on international expansion – backed by outstanding customer support. In this context, the company has now further extended its sales organisation. From his office at company headquarters in Filderstadt, Jens Glatz (36) is managing the accounts of customers in Austria, Scandinavia and South America, with the support of local partners in some cases. And in Girona near Barcelona, Alberto Pons (37) has become the commercial agent for Spain. For the first time, HERMA's customers on the Iberian Peninsula now have access to a dedicated local partner and exclusive distributor of HERMA self-adhesive materials.

Before joining HERMA, the qualified industrial and business administrator Jens Glatz accumulated several years of sales experience with a German label producer. Alberto Pons can also draw on many years of experience in the industry. He has been working in the self-adhesive technology segment since 1996, most recently as international sales manager for a well-known global manufacturer of self-adhesive products.

Valuable experience
"Given their track records in the industry, both Jens Glatz and Alberto Pons are very familiar with our customers' requirements and challenges," comments HERMA managing director Dr. Thomas Baumgärtner. "In view of HERMA's commitment to outstanding service quality and short response times, their project management experience is especially valuable to us. They are now providing us with support in markets that harbour huge potential." Pointing out that HERMA's Self-adhesive Materials division is already generating around two-thirds of its revenues in Europe (excluding Germany), Dr. Thomas Baumgärtner continues, "We intend to post further significant growth in the international markets."
