Graham Buchanan Joins Custom Consoles As Commercial Director

Custom Consoles, one of the world's leading manufacturers of technical control furniture, has announced the expansion of its management team.
Graham Buchanan joined the company with effect from January 1 as Commerical Director, working alongside Managing Director Neil Reed, Sales Manager Gary Fuller and the twenty-strong production staff at Custom Consoles' headquarters in Leighton Buzzard.
Custom Consoles was co-founded by Graham and Neil in 1996, initially to produce studio furniture for ATG Spectrum which they jointly established in 1993. As Managing Director, Graham developed ATG Spectrum into ATG Broadcast, a highly successful systems integrator with clients in many countries.
Neil Reed commented: "Graham will supervise day-to-day management of the company's activities as we continue our expansion into new territories and a wider range of business sectors. His relaxed and friendly style are appreciated by customers and colleagues alike and helped build ATG Broadcast into a major player, both as an independent company and, since 2006, as a subsidiary of the Danmon Systems Group."
Graham Buchanan said: "Custom Consoles furniture has won a very high reputation for the attractive design, ergonomic efficiency and structural robustness of its control desks and storage furniture. Within a short time of Custom Consoles being established, it began to win orders from third-party broadcast systems integrators and later went on to achieve substantial sales of desks for industrial process control and multi-screen security television.
"The company's early focus on studio requirements proved a good foundation for today's largely IT-oriented world where efficient cable management, equipment ventilation and monitor display mounting are crucial to many contracts. My task will be to capitalise on these talents as we widen our market base."
