Following the retirement of long-standing Managing Director, Tim Pestell, Saniflo announces the appointment of David Cook to the position with effect from 1st January 2024.
David joined Saniflo as Sales Director & MD Designate in May 2023 and has spent the last few months shadowing Tim, meeting customers and gradually taking the helm. He joins at an exciting time in the company’s development as the commercial product range grows following the acquisition of Zehnder Pumps.
It also comes as the Kinedo range of products continues to expand with the launch of Kinewall; a stunning new range of decorative bathroom wall panels.
Prior to joining the company, David was Sales Director at Baxi Heating. He was there for 26 years having joined as an Area Contracts Manager in the Southeast of England and worked his way up the ladder as Divisional Sales Manager, Key Account Manager, Brand Manager – Main Boilers and more.
With common trade and consumer customers he very much understands the sector and has been able to hit the ground running. David’s aims and aspirations in his new role at Saniflo include building on the success of the previous incumbent, with a focus on the commercial pump range and Kinedo showering range.
David comments: “I am delighted to join the Saniflo team and make official my new role as Managing Director. Following in the successful footsteps of Tim, my aim is to increase Saniflo’s share of the commercial pump market, whilst also focussing on the Kinedo showering range. We have a great team here at Saniflo who are enthused to achieve the companies’ ambitions.”
