Jorge Jones Joins SpectraSensors to Establish International Distribution Channels

As part of SpectraSensors’ strategic plan to aggressively grow into the international marketplace, Jorge Jones has joined the company in the new role of Director of International Sales with a primary focus on establishing international distribution channels. This move is an important step for SpectraSensors to continue its leading role of on-line tunable diode laser analyzer solutions.

SpectraSensors technology and products for “on-line” moisture measurement have enjoyed excellent acceptance in the United States natural gas industry. Early in 2006 the Company has successfully launched new moisture measurement applications for the Petrochemical, Chemical, Semi-Conductor, and other process industries. International expansion is one of the top strategic initiatives at SpectraSensors for 2006.

George Balogh, SpectraSensors CEO said, “Jorge’s presence is perfectly timed. We are positioned to expand in 2006, and to successfully bring our products to the rest of the world. Jorge Jones’ connections and understanding of international markets, and his track record for growth in analytical instrument business will serve to round out SpectraSensors’ sales force.”

Jorge Jones received an MBA degree from Rice University, Houston Texas, and a Mechanical Engineering degree from Universidad Nacional, Bogotá, Colombia and has 17 years of business experience in industrial markets. Jones’ experience includes a diverse blend of general management and business development roles in entrepreneurial start up businesses as well as large corporations. Jones’ most recent tenure at Emerson Process Management included Directorial and General Management roles for International operations.

Jorge Jones is stationed in Houston Texas, reporting to the VP of Sales, Dale Langham, and can be contacted at (1)-281-379-4805.
