Epoxy manufacturer Gougeon Brothers, Inc. has recently added two new members to its growing Sales and Marketing teams.

Eric Heilshorn has joined the company’s outside sales department to handle sales of PRO-SET and PRO-VAC USA Vacuum Bagging Consumables in the Western region of the United States.

Heilshorn’s long marine industry career in design engineering and manufacturing make him uniquely qualified to assist GBI clients with their composite manufacturing projects. He comes to us from 3A Composites in High Point, North Carolina, where he managed four primary product lines and 30 different product offerings in the North American market. Prior to that he spent several years as the Northern Regional Sales manager for Vectorply Corporation in Phenix City, Alabama, where he strengthened supplier-distributor relationships from the Mid-West to Eastern Canada.

He holds a Bachelor of Science degree from Plymouth State College in Plymouth, New Hampshire and a Certificate of Design from The Landing School in Arundel, Maine.

Tyler Pier is the newest member of the growing GBI Marketing Department. He will spearhead all digital marketing efforts including SEO and social media, with special focus on Entropy Resins and WEST SYSTEM. He earned a Bachelor of Business degree from Western Michigan University and gained excellent digital marketing experience working at Sekisui Voltek, a closed-cell foam manufacturer in Coldwater, Michigan.

 “As we’ve grown, we’ve been very fortunate in attracting some of the brightest individuals in the composites industry to join us in support of our products, and Eric and Tyler are no exceptions. We’re thrilled to have them aboard,” said Gougeon President Alan Gurski.
