Tansun, a world leader in infrared (IR) radiant heating technology, has appointed Jeremy (Jem) Drew as Managing Director. Company founder, Pete Rana, will remain with the business as Chairman. These leadership changes have been carefully planned to take full advantage of Tansun’s strong market position and to support further success in its next phase of growth.
In his new role, Jem Drew will be responsible for the development and execution of short and long-term strategies and for the day-to-day control of operations at Tansun, while Pete Rana will focus on working with national and international institutions, environmentalists and industry leaders to increase uptake of the company’s technologies.
“I’m truly excited about my new appointment,” said Jem Drew. “With its commitment to developing and manufacturing innovative products in the UK that are affordable, repairable and recyclable; and that can be ultra-low carbon or even carbon neutral, Tansun is exceptionally well placed to grow and greatly extend its market penetration. I’m looking forward to making the most of these advantages so that the company realises its full potential to provide benefits for our customers, our employees and our stakeholders.”
“Leading Tansun for the past 39 years has been an amazing journey, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved,” said Pete Rana. “Before Tansun, there were no dedicated infrared heater manufacturers. Today, we have supplied well over 500,000 Tansun heaters to some of the most prestigious bars, restaurants, sporting venues and businesses across the globe! Now, with his proven abilities and experience, I’m confident that Jem will take us to the next level. And, of course, I’ll still be around to offer support and assistance should he need it!”
