He will be able to provide screening solutions through Major Wire’s entire product line, including Flex-Mat 3 High-Performance, Self-Cleaning Screen Cloth,” said Gary Pederson, Major Wire’s vice president, Sales. “Jim will be a great addition to our sales team and we look forward to having him on board.”
