Vivid creates technical director role as it ramps up R&D

Vivid Laminating Technologies has appointed long-term staff member Gavin Ward to the newly created role of technical director as it ramps up R&D.

Ward said: “For a little over ten years I have either been directly involved or managing the research and development side of this business and have overseen the development of systems and patented functionality such as the Matrix Pneumatic as well as its Duplex variants, the Matrix Metallic, Easymount Air and the integration of our Magnum range. It’s come to a point where we’re working on many cutting-edge ideas, and we need to dedicate more time and resource to R&D. We’re working on some incredibly innovative projects that you’ll know more about in the coming months”.
