Commenting on his new role, Russ said: “I’m delighted to be joining Kudos who are currently enjoying both positive sales growth and support from their new parent company, the Ronal Group.

“We have lots of new products lined up over the coming months to deliver into the UK market and that will require the support of an extended team in sales.

“I’m very much looking forward to delivering these new products and growing the new team.”

Sales & marketing director for Kudos Nick Graville commented: “Over the past four years our customers have been supported by our eight-strong retail support managers (RSMs), all of whom provide technical and installation assistance.

“As we grow there is clearly a need for us to provide more sales support with a team of area sales managers who will work alongside the RSMs improving the depth of support and communication with our customer base.

“We are delighted that Tony Russ has agreed to join us to lead this new team.”

Kudos has been acquired by European SanSwiss and laid out its ambition to be the UK’s biggest enclosure and tray manufacturer.

Sintered stone manufacturer Neolith has launched Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset, inspired by nature and classical architecture, and for use in kitchens or bathrooms walls, floors, in gardens or facades.

They belong to The New Classtone and Fusioncollections which interpret marble and natural stone, respectively, and boast Neolith’s antibacterial NeolEAT technology.

Inspired by Ancient Rome,  Calacatta Roma (pictured top) pays homage to Italian Carrara marble, with ochre and grey veins in a white background.

While the Cappadocia region, in central Turkey, with its rock formations formed by volcanoes and underground cities, has inspired Cappadocia Sunset (pictured below).

Just like all of Neolith’s surfaces, Calacatta Roma and Cappadocia Sunset are resistant to heat and atmospheric conditions, are 100% recyclable, and do not contain added quartz to their formulation.
