behind those products—it is important that we get out and tell people about that.” Among those products are RUD’s
German-made hoist chains and TECDOS range, which is a broad portfolio of components, from chains to drives, for technically demanding material handling and industrial applications. New products will also be an important component of continued growth, Schroeder said. He added: “Customers’ needs are
constantly changing and, being an innovative company, our growth will align with those requirements. We have the ability to offer standard products and specialty one-off, custom solutions. Both are important, as no two lifts are the same. Currently business is very good; manufacturing has continued to remain steady and construction has experienced a boost. Caldwell is strong across the board and we are lucky that when one industry hits a lull, other sectors keep on moving up.” Separately, the company has named
Aftab Haider regional sales manager, Canada and USA, specializing in the TECDOS
and hoist lines of RUD. The TECDOS and hoist products are relatively new to the Caldwell / RUD partnership in the U.S. and Canada. Haider
will initially be responsible for promoting these German- made hoist chains and the TECDOS range, which is a broad portfolio of RUD components—from chains to drives—for technically demanding material handling and other applications. The RUD / TECDOS ranges falls under Caldwell’s Rigall division. Haider will travel extensively as he builds connections with both the dealer network and end users directly to promote these products and services. Haider said: “I approached RUD
to enquire about opportunities in North America, as I had worked with them previously. I was introduced to
Caldwell where I went through an interviewing process.” Previously, Haider worked for CECO
Environmental, offering air pollution control technologies; and STT Enviro Corp, providing chemical bulk handling systems and solutions. He pointed to the synergies in customer base with Caldwell, including representatives at mines, steel mills, water treatment plants, and in the automotive industry. However, he acknowledged: “I am new to
the TECDOS range and hoist chains, and have already engaged in extensive training on these products. The team has also been tremendously supportive. I am looking forward to working in the sectors I am already familiar with in addition to those that will be new to me— offshore, onshore, hoist manufacturers, and the entertainment sector, for example. Broadly, it is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic, growing business portfolio.” Haider will report to Darrin Noe, director
of sales at Caldwell, who said: “As we’ve reported in other personnel announcements, it is important that our new recruits fit the profile and culture of the company. Aftab also
