BARNSLEY, England — January 9, 2017 — MagnaColours® has appointed a new Marketing Manager. Paul Arnold joined Magna in early December, and will be helping to champion the MagnaColours brand, promote new and existing products and reinforce Magna’s position as a market leader.

He will really help to strengthen and expand our market position, and help communicate effectively with both distributors and screen-printers about our offering and to bring new ideas to the business. At Magna, we’re driven by innovation and we always strive to provide new and exciting products, helping to revolutionize the water-based ink industry. Paul’s previous experience and background in both product and marketing stands him in great stead for his role at Magna.”
Arnold added: “Magna has an incredible reputation in the industry, they’ve really led the way for water-based inks, so I’m thrilled to be joining the team. I look forward to helping them market innovative new products and initiatives, whilst highlighting the capabilities of water-based inks and cementing Magna’s position as industry leaders.”
Throughout his career, Arnold has gained valuable experience in product management, communications and customer engagement. His understanding of the textile industry will also be extremely beneficial in his new role.
