Cryoquip plans growth strategy in Southeast Asia

In anticipation of the expected growth in the countries of the Association of South East Asia Nations, (the ASEAN countries) notably, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippines, Cryoquip has a planned strategy to increase its sales and marketing focus on this region.

To begin its implementation Cryoquip is pleased to announce the appointment of Joel Maclou (Cryoquip-Australia) as the Sales Manager, Asean Region, responsible for all Cryoquip product sales in the Asean region, the Middle East and the countries of Korea, Taiwan and Japan.

Maclou will take up his new responsibilities on August 1st and will relocate and eventually be based in Cryoquip’s new facility offices in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in order to be centrally located in the region. 

It is anticipated that Maclou will increase Cryoquip’s visibility and market share as well as sustain existing business in the industrial gas sector. 

To that end he will build a team of specialized multi-product sales engineers, based mainly in the Malaysian office, to not only meet the anticipated growth in the region and secure more market share in traditional products, but also introduce new products and engineered solutions for various new projects throughout Asia, and provide locally based technical support to Cryoquip’s existing customers. 

Maclou graduated from RMIT University in Melbourne as a Chemical Engineer and started with Cryoquip following graduation in 1999. Over the past years he gained extensive cryogenic experience through various applications within the industrial gas industry. He’s acquired valuable knowledge in marketing the group’s products throughout the Asia-Pacific and Middle East region.
