Egidio D'Antona joins Rocol as the new head of technical having joined from Swedish electric car manufacturer, Polestar.
Kelly Dougill and Matthew Broderick are named as two new product managers, overseeing plant, facilities and maintenance fluids, and process lubricants respectively.
According to Rocol, all three new hires underscore the company’s continued commitment to advancing its product offerings and maintaining its position as a market leader in industrial lubricants.
With a focus on driving growth and innovation, D'Antona has outlined that one of his priorities will be to concentrate on high-impact research projects that align with current and future market trends.
All three members of staff joined the company as part of a strategic hiring drive in August 2024.
Rocol said that it has experienced a “significant increase” in demand in 2024 compared to last year and expects to see a “stronger level of growth” for the rest of the year.
Gerard McCargo, human resources business partner at ITW Fluids Europe, said: “We are excited to finally announce Egidio, Kelly, and Matthew have joined the ROCOL team at an important time in the company's history.

“Our new experts will now support ROCOL in its mission to serve our global customer base and capitalise on new market opportunities, providing fresh ideas and approaches to sit alongside our high-quality products and services.”
