The Team

I am responsible for the Packaging Machinery side of the business and am always looking for new innovations and ways to provide flexible solutions to our customers.

I joined Engelmann & Buckham in 2000 and I have had the benefit of working with some of the most innovative machinery manufacturers from around the world.

My degree in Industrial Design & Technology, combined with over 18 years in the business, enables me to provide companies with a range of solutions for automation in the packaging, graphic arts, direct mail and e-logistics markets.

Two of the best parts of my job are the relationships that I form with my customers and working in constantly evolving markets with developing technologies.

After five years in the Royal Engineers and a passing knowledge of the farming world,  I joined  Engelmann and Buckham (E&B) to sell machines to fill milk into plastic bottles and caps to seal it in.

My 22 years with E&B has covered the packing (packaging) and converting sectors, selling machines for:

Packaging – specifically Liquids Filling (dairy & juice market)

Converting – specifically Reel-to-Reel (unwind – rewind) converting of paper film and foil by

• Slitting
• Flexographic Printing
• Coating
• Laminating
• Paper cup & lid making

More recently in the last two years:

• Plastics sheet & film extrusion
• Plastics thermoforming

I enjoy adapting to the variety of industries these activities represent – and building good relationships with Principals, customer decision-makers and machine operators alike.

In 1996 I visited a paper mill in Kent to specify new slitting knives for an old slitter-rewinder machine. On comparing notes with my father I found that, over 60 years earlier as an apprentice engineer, he had helped commission the machines in the same factory!

I have over 17 years of experience specifying and supplying instruments used for the development and testing of plastic and rubber materials. I have spent 6 years commissioning, servicing and calibrating the same instruments at Engelmann and Buckham. I enjoy the travel and the many, varied aspects of the job which are always challenging and rewarding.

In the earlier part of my career I worked as a time-served engineer with the Ministry of Defence before becoming a Marine Engineer in the Royal Navy. This varied experience has helped me to understand the wide ranging needs of our client base.

Now, with over 20 years experience in packaging automation, I am working with some of the best machinery manufacturers in the world today. I enjoy the every day challenges I face from the different and diverse industries we serve and building good relationships with our customers.

I started as Design Engineer in Packaging Machinery before becoming a Sales Engineer and have been in various sales and engineering roles within Packaging Industry for over 30 years.

Following an eight year interlude away from Engelmann and Buckham (E&B), including a four year stint in sales and aftersales in the Aviation industry, I returned to E&B as Aftersales Manager. My responsibilities cover all aftersales functions including spares and service.

As the Service & Materials Manager for E&B, my role is supporting our customers through service agreements, preventative maintenance programmes and critical spares kits. We want our customers to maximise their machinery investments, and I’m focused on improving efficiencies, reducing machine down time and increasing the life span of their lines.

I’m also responsible for sale and implementation of materials to our customers, including inks, films and manufacturing items.

During my first tenure I worked in the graphic arts division of E&B, selling Sitma mailing and wrapping lines and various binding solutions.

Our established Aftersales team are headed by Peter Heighes. A key part of our company they co-ordinate the Service Engineers and are the main contact with our customers. Linda Keddle is our Engineering Co-ordinator, she focusses on arranging the engineer’s schedules, managing service agreements, whilst working closely with a number of our principals on after sales issues.
