Belzona UK has announced that Mr Jéremié Maillard has been appointed as Managing Director, effective 1st May 2024.
Mr Maillard is the newest appointment following the creation of Belzona UK as an independent distributorship in January 2024, servicing the UK with industrial repair and maintenance solutions.
With eighteen years within the Belzona community, Mr Maillard’s expertise ranges from Mechanical and Chemical Engineering as well as Business Development and sales. Beginning his career in 2006, providing technical advice and training to international Distributors, he went on to offer commercial support to increase the market penetration of Belzona solutions in Europe and Africa.

With this experience, Jéremié is ideally placed to provide a new vision for the domestic UK market.
“We want to strengthen our position in the field of composite repairs and specialist protective coatings and assist the key industries present in the UK. Our aim is to offer end users the opportunity to use Belzona solutions, either themselves, via our own Application Team or via a Trained Contractor.
I will communicate the strategy for the next three years with specific industry targets to ensure optimum cohesion and collaboration between the various aspects of the business, including: Sales, Training, Application Service, Customer Service and Marketing”
Belzona is a global leader in providing repair and maintenance solutions to all industries. Belzona UK was established to create specialised focus in supporting industries to help conserve equipment and facilities within the UK. Our solutions empower the industry to reduce its ecological footprint by rehabilitating and sustaining the life and performance of its physical assets.
“Whilst the UK is a matured market for Belzona, there are still major growth opportunities. Belzona solutions do offer significant benefits for the end users, from time sensitive applications, limited maintenance budgets, or to simply reduce their environmental impact. One of our primary goals will be to support key industries and reintroduce some well-known Belzona repairs, but also introducing new innovative solutions.”
