Quantitech Announces New MD

Following the acquisition of Quantitech (UK) by Gasmet Technologies, Ken Roberts has been appointed as the company’s new Managing Director. “This is an exciting and challenging role,” Ken says. “Keith Golding ran this business for over 33 years, creating a strong reputation for high quality products with outstanding levels of service, and I am greatly looking forward to the next phase of Quantitech’s development.

“There are significant growth opportunities in the UK and Ireland, particularly in the emissions monitoring sector, and we will be investing in the resources needed to make that happen.”

Ken has over 35 years of experience in the monitoring instrumentation sector, beginning in 1981 as a junior service engineer and progressing rapidly to senior management positions. His career to-date has included 11 years as Managing Director of a UK gas detection and emissions monitoring business, which experienced high levels of growth under his guidance.

Looking forward, Ken says: “As a subsidiary of Gasmet, FTIR analysers will be a key focus for Quantitech, however, we will also offer an important range of other technologies and systems as part of our strategy to help customers demonstrate regulatory compliance, improve process efficiency, and protect health, safety and the environment.”
