Based in Vienna, Austria, Steve has more than 15 years’ experience in industrial pump distribution having served as Regional Manager for Dover's Wilden Pump/PSG, and more recently as Regional Director for RathGibson, now part of PCC. In order to devote more resources in the German market, European Sales Manager Wieland Stapf will now focus exclusively on developing business in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.

In the US, John Krainock has been named Western Regional Sales Manager. With 20 years in sales industrial distribution management, John brings a new perspective to the sales team with expertise in the world of construction and fasteners while maintaining the company’s commitment to distribution and customer support.
