We’re proud to have built a culture at Aquafil where high performing team members are excited to return.”

With over 30 years of experience in sales, marketing and manufacturing, Ian has a proven track record of driving strategic initiatives to create both short- and long-term value for his customers. Ian previously served as the director of sales & marketing of Aquafil USA from 2013 to 2019. In the last three years, he has continued to build experience and connections through sales leadership positions within the design, architecture and construction markets. He strives to develop strong, meaningful relationships with his peers and customers, and has extensive knowledge of the materials and processes specific to the commercial, residential and automotive flooring segments. 

“It’s an honor to be welcomed back to the Aquafil Group at such an exciting time and period of growth,” said Ian Burt. “There’s a hunger for more innovative, sustainable ingredients in the design and manufacturing space, and Aquafil is poised to be a strategic partner to advance our customers’ goals.
