New Graham Engineering extrusion rep for Manitoba

Graham Engineering Corporation has appointed Patrick Johnsen to be regional sales manager for extrusion in the Canadian province of Manitoba and the U.S. Midwest.

The extrusion division comprises Welex sheet lines and American Kuhne extruders and extrusion systems.

Johnsen joins the group from the co-extrusion processor Senoplast, where he was business development manager. Previously he had served for nine years in sales positions with extrusion system supplier Processing Technologies International (PTi).

The Graham Group acquired majority interest in American Kuhne in 2012, followed by Graham Engineering Corporation’s acquisition of Welex in June 2013. Graham is a privately held company headquartered in York, Pa.
