NOVI, MI, Oct. 12, 2005 -- Seeking increased market share of ion exchange resins and its other related water purification products and equipment, Thermax USA, has expanded its executive staff with key appointments in sales, marketing and manufacturing.

Shashidhar Shastri, president of Thermax subsidiaries in the Western Hemisphere, named industry veteran Jim Sabzali the company's new general manager for North America. Philadelphia-based Sabzali, 46, was former sales manager of Dow Chemical's resins and adsorbents division. More recently, he was North American sales and marketing manager for Purolite. He is a former resident of Toronto now living in suburban Philadelphia.

Other Thermax staff additions include Cindy Gresham, new sales manager for the Eastern United States and Nancy Gleasman as the new sales manager for the central Midwestern states.

"These proven hires denote our renewed commitment to the United States as well as the entire North American market," Sabzali claims. "Plus, with our equipment division, we have the option of offering turn-key solutions, not just commodities. This sets us apart from all the other ion exchange producers."
