Paul Filippelli has been appointed national sales manager for Drytac Canada, which manufactures pressure-sensitive laminates, mounting adhesives, window graphic films and other adhesive-coated products in Concord, Ont.

Filippelli was previously vice-president (VP) of sales for Multi-Tac, a Toronto-based adhesive coating company recently acquired by Drytac. His experience includes extensive knowledge of custom and contract coating for the sign and graphics industry, as well as industrial and specialty label coatings.

“During his tenure at Multi-Tac, Paul established business relationships, developed strategic growth plans and increased sales in the graphics and signage market through value-added services,” says Richard Kelley, Drytac chair and CEO. “By bringing him on-board, we will be able to nurture existing Multi-Tac customer relationships and solidify Drytac as a reputable supplier of custom coatings.”

In his new role, Filippelli is responsible for all sales and marketing efforts of the combined Drytac and Multi-Tac group.
