11/22/2019 / Press release

Ensinger Building Products, a subsidiary of Ensinger Group in Germany, has announced the appointment of James Wright as the new Vice President and General Manager of Ensinger Building Products NA (North America). Mr. Wright succeeds former Vice President and General Manager Bruce Tichenor, who has retired after a highly successful eight year tenure overseeing growth and expansion of Ensinger Building Product’s proprietary insulbar thermal barrier insulating technology for window, door and facade construction in North America.

As the new VP/General Manager, Mr. Wright  draws on more than twelve years experience in sales, operations management, process improvement and business finance in the chemical industry to will be responsible for sales and production of insulbar at Ensinger’s production facility in Grenloch, NJ.

Mr. Wright stated “The window markets in North and South America are growing steadily with metal frames particularly in demand because they are highly durable and low maintenance.” “However, metal is very conductive thermal and this is where insulbar excels through an insulating profile that combines low thermal conductivity with outstanding stability and excellent workability.” “ With energy codes for windows and doors becoming more stringent in the Americas, insulbar allows architects, contractors, and window/door manufacturers to achieve improved thermal performance without compromise.”

James Wright is from Wilmington, DE, where he lives with his fiancé. He holds a BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh and an MBA from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. In his spare time he loves to travel and enjoys cooking and running.

Ensinger GmbH is one of the world’s leading developers and producers of thermal insulating profiles for window, door and facade construction. The profiles marketed under the brand name insulbar^® create a thermal barrier between the inner and outer shells of metal frames. Insulation solutions using insulbar^® profiles achieve the best values in terms of energy saving and reduced heating and air conditioning costs, while complying with the most stringent quality standards in every respect. They have been in successful application the world over for more than forty years.

The Ensinger Group is engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of compounds, semi-finished materials, composites, technical parts and profiles made of engineering and high-performance plastics. To process the thermoplastic polymers, Ensinger uses a wide range of production techniques, such as extrusion, machining, injection moulding, casting, sintering and pressing. With a total of 2,500 employees at 33 locations, the family-owned enterprise is represented worldwide in all major industrial regions with manufacturing facilities or sales offices. www.ensingerplastics.com
