BANGKOK, Thailand--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 16, 2008
Pierre Sbabo and Peter Bracher Appointed Managing Directors of NSF
and NSF-CMi Asia-Pacific
NSF International has opened a new regional headquarters in Bangkok,
Thailand to oversee its operations throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
The new office will be home to NSF's water and product certification
division and the NSF-CMi food safety division.
The new office will provide technical assistance, inspection and
certification services to manufacturers and retailers in the
Asia-Pacific region. The move is a strategic response to the region’s
fast growing need among multi-national corporations and small to medium
sized enterprises to meet global regulatory requirements and best
practices.
“Our Asian office in Thailand will expand the
reach of our service portfolio to meet the increasing regional demand
for brand protection through third-party auditing, testing and
certification," said Koen Bontinck, NSF Vice President of International
Operations. “It will also enable us to provide
our global customers in this emerging market with faster, more
cost-effective, regional solutions.”
Export-related product certification has, to date, been the largest and
fastest growing sector for NSF in this region of the world. NSF was
recently presented with an Export Achievement Certificate from the US
Department of Commerce for increasing export sales and expanding into
new global markets, including Asia.
Two new executives, Pierre Sbabo and Peter Bracher, have been appointed
to oversee the increasing growth of the company’s
health and safety services in the Asia-Pacific region.
