Sarney moves to Result Group

The Result Group has named Ian Sarney as the new contact for self-adhesive material sales for print.

Headed by Michael Dossor, the Result Group represents self-adhesive material specialist Herma, which has recently extended its customer support provisions on both the European and South American markets.

Ian Sarney has worked in the paper, printing, packaging, labelling and processing industries for more than 25 years, most recently responsible for a wide range of duties with Rotometrics, a global producer of rotary tooling for printing, punching and cutting applications. He recently visited New Zealand, speaking to industry members here. He will have responsibility for the accounts of customers in Australia and New Zealand, working from the Result Group’s headquarters in Dandenong in Melbourne.

Thomas Baumgärtner, managing director of Herma, says, “Down Under, the Result Group is a strategic partner for us. We therefore welcome and support any reinforcement for what is already a flexible team. Michael Dossor and his employees exploit fresh applications and market potential, while adopting an uncompromising strategy in pursuit of quality and service goals. We are thus a very good match.”

In the 2012 fiscal year, the Herma Group generated sales of around €245.6m ($380m) with 840 employees in three divisions: self-adhesive materials, labels and labelling machines. Herma’s self-adhesive materials division currently generates around two-thirds of its sales inside Europe. Baumgärtner adds, “Our next target is to post substantial growth beyond Europe as well.”
