Van der Moolen was closely involved in the Research & Development process leading to the launch of XLNT's CyberHoist range and has extensive experience in the rigging market with Stagemaker. He comments, "When I was invited to join XLNT I had already taken the decision to move away from frontline sales and move more into product and brand development consultancy. As I had been familiar with CyberHoist and the whole XLNT team for many years, and they were looking for someone with experience of product development and setting up distribution networks for their motion control business, it was a perfect match.
"I see a great future at XLNT with a talented and energetic team developing a number of tremendous products. Combined with a growing distribution and sales network XLNT will do extremely good business in the motion control market - and I'm very happy to be able to help them realize their ambitious goals."
XLNT commercial director Marc van der Wel added, "We are delighted that a man of Hans's talents, experience and contacts has joined us. It brings new top-level strength to our motion products team and will help us grow the brand worldwide."
