Tower Products, Inc., a manufacturer of environmentally sensitive pressroom chemistry, has announced several organizational changes that will go into effect on January 1, 2021.

Frank Newman has joined the company as vice president of operations. He will take an active role in managing Tower’s production, procurement and logistics all with company growth as the goal. Newman joins the company after a long and successful tenure at Glunz & Jensen.

Chas Gunderman has been promoted to production director and will have full responsibility for daily production planning, as well as shipping and receiving. He has been a 30-year team member at Tower and was most recently the company’s production supervisor.

Dennis Johnson has been promoted to technical sales director for the company. Johnson has been with Tower Products for five years and will still maintain his Midwest sales territory while helping customers and other Tower account managers solve complex pressroom issues.

Meanwhile, Mark Principato has been promoted to director of flexographic products and international sales. Previously, he was the product manager for Tower’s SmartFlex line of flexographic chemistry. He will also focus on international sales efforts (particularly in flexo but also offset) as sales of its technology products are increasing quickly in countries outside of the US.
