CorDEX Instruments has appointed a new US sales manager to North America as a result of strong sales growth. Lang joined CorDEX from Fluke Corporation where he worked as Western Region Thermography and Infrared Windows Territory Manager.
Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, Lang will be responsible for the promotion and sale of CorDEX’s intrinsically safe and explosion-proof equipment which has been designed for use in the global oil and gas industry.
CorDEX Instruments Chief Executive, Tony Holliday, said: “The United States is a key market for the company where we are experiencing significant interest in our intrinsically safe products. Scott has considerable experience and knowledge of the industry as well as an extensive network of contacts which will help us drive forward our growth strategy in this region.”
A University of Central Florida graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1995, Lang worked for Lockheed-Martin as a systems engineer on NASA’s Space shuttle at Kennedy Space Center. He left the space program in 1996 to help start Oceana Sensor Technologies which focused on vibration monitoring and analysis. From that point, he spent five years, from 2003 to 2008, working in the residential construction field before joining infrared window manufacturer Hawk-IR which was purchased by Fluke in 2009.
Lang said: “CorDEX Instruments has a growing reputation across the United States and there is an increasing demand for the company’s cutting-edge technology as firms seek to enhance their monitoring and maintenance of assets and pipelines. North America represents a significant market for the company and we hope to build upon strong sales in the area.”
