Wrightstyle, one of Europe’s leading suppliers of advanced glass and steel glazing systems, has appointed Jimmy Chiu as business development manager, north of England and Scotland.

Jimmy joins Devizes-based Wrightstyle as the company looks to expand in both the UK and international markets.

Jimmy Chiu has worked in the glass and glazing industry for 14 years, primarily with Impactex Safety Glass, Leeds (now Pilkington Laminated), and, for the past eleven years, with Arkoni.

“Jimmy’s national and international experience will be a real asset to Wrightstyle, at a time when the market is increasingly recognising how specialist our systems are – capable of dealing with the full spectrum of natural and man-made threats,” said Tim Kempster, Wrightstyle managing director.

“At Wrightstyle, we not only supply the glass and framing system, but our guarantee is that both elements have been tested together as one compatible unit – against fire, ballistic or bomb attack, and therefore offering complete security for our customers. That’s an important message that the industry needs to hear, and Jimmy’s experience makes him the perfect person for the role,” he said.

Jimmy Chiu said that he was ‘very pleased to be joining Wrightstyle, as the company continues to set national and international standards in its design innovation and performance testing regimes.’
