Encon Construction Products invests in growth with new Sales Director

Encon Construction Products, part of The Encon Group, continues to invest in growth with the appointment of Richard Wade as the new Sales Director for the specialist division. 

About Encon

Encon Construction Products was introduced to the Group in 2019, strengthening its position as the leading distributor in specialist markets.
