Advanced Engineering 2025
Chris Sawbridge has retired as of October 2025 and Kynan Perry will be taking on Chris’ role and hopes to build upon his success.
Chris has been with us for 8 years as a Senior Sales Representative, and in the brazing industry for over 22 years. Over this time, he has become a well-known and well-respected member of the metal joining community and of VBC Group.
In his time with us, Chris has spear-headed the successful development of our silver brazing alloy and flux brand – Meta-Braze™. His approach has always been to put his customers first and go out of his way to find solutions to their problems.
We know that Chris’ customers will miss his positive, cheerful and knowledgeable presence as much as his friends and colleagues at VBC Group will. We wish Chris the best of luck and hope he enjoys his well-earned retirement.
Kynan Perry will join Neil Finch on behalf of VBC Group on the 29th October at Advanced Engineering UK at the NEC Birmingham.
Advanced Engineering is a popular and highly attended exhibition that provides an overview of technological innovations and a chance for networking with industry professionals.
Exploring the future of manufacturing, Kynan and Neil look forward to attending talks and presentations as well as viewing displays and demonstrations performed by engineering professionals, reflecting advancements in the industry.
