Inlex Locking strengthens team with key hires

Wolverhampton-based threadlocking and sealing specialist Inlex Locking has expanded its team with the appointment of Chris Hines as quality manager and Simon Elwell as sales and new business manager.

Chris joins from another business within the Anochrome Group, bringing experience in quality management from the make-to-print industry.

He said: “Being part of the Anochrome Group has been very interesting. 

“There is lots of variety and areas to get involved in.

“This move within the Group represents a new and exciting challenge for me. 

“I have already begun reviewing all the systems within Inlex involving products, suppliers and customer service and working with the team to achieve best practice.”

Simon, previously with The Electrolytic Plating Company, brings decades of experience in coatings, having started his career with Prelok Ltd in 1987 before its acquisition by Inlex in 2014.

Simon added: “I started in the lab on coatings and moved up to production manager before switching to patching in 1997.

“The industry has progressed over the last 38 years in terms of new technology and automation and I enjoy continually learning and progressing.

“It’s fantastic to be part of the Inlex team. 

“There is more support here than I have had previously working with experienced staff who all strive to help us deliver the best services for our customers.”

As Inlex continues to grow, both new hires will play key roles in maintaining quality standards, supporting existing customers, and driving new business opportunities.

Kev Walton, group thread locking, sealing & purchasing director at Inlex, added: “We are delighted to strengthen our team with the addition of Chris and Simon, who each have decades of experience in their areas of expertise.

“Inlex continues to excel and grow and Chris and Simon can help us to offer industry-leading customer service.”
