Flexicon (Europe) Ltd, a supplier of bulk handling equipment headquartered in Whitstable, Kent, has opened a new office in Barcelona, Spain to provide factory-direct engineering services and technical sales support to customers and boost the company's growth in the region.

The Barcelona office is headed by Víctor Zamora Gómez, Regional Sales Manager, who was previously Project Manager for a bulk solids consultancy where he managed mechanical and electrical aspects of small-to-large bulk handling projects.

At Flexicon he will be responsible for building relationships with plant managers, engineers and other decision-makers in facilities that handle bulk solid materials across the food, pharmaceutical, mineral and general chemical industries.

'The Barcelona location, coupled with our new Spanish language website, will fuel Flexicon's rapid growth in the region by providing a dedicated Spanish-language staff with full access to corporate resources,' said Managing Director Keith Bourton. 'It will have full access to Flexicon's engineering resources, including details on more than 20,000 installations of Flexicon bulk handling equipment worldwide.'

Flexicon offers mechanical conveyors; pneumatic conveying systems; bulk bag filling, unloading and conditioning machinery; box, drum and container tippers; manual dumping stations; weigh batching systems; and automated plant-wide bulk handling systems integrated with new or existing process equipment.

Flexicon (Europe) Ltd is a fully owned subsidiary of Flexicon Corporation of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, US. In addition to the Kent manufacturing location, Flexicon Corporation owns and operates manufacturing facilities in Brisbane, Australia and Port Elizabeth, South Africa, and maintains factory-direct sales offices in Santiago, Chile and Singapore.
