Kevin Welch moves from UK sales manager to international to launch the SGS worldwide RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) testing services
SGS United Kingdom announces the appointment of Kevin Welch to the position of international sales manager for electrical and electronics.
Welch moves from UK sales manager to international as part of the SGS initiative to enhance both its electrical test services nationally and internationally and to launch the SGS worldwide RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) testing services.
Reflecting on his new appointment Welch commented: "This is a very exciting time to make this move in light of the immense amount of European and worldwide activity surrounding the environmental issues associated with electrical and electronic items.
"With the introduction of WEEE Directive (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) and the RoHS Directive, manufacturers/importers and suppliers will be struggling to achieve compliance and an understanding of the requirements.
"SGS is ideally positioned to meet the requirements of manufacturers/importers and suppliers with the world's largest network of test laboratories specifically set up for analytical RoHS testing."
