Penetron Strengthens West Coast Presence with New Account Manager Appointment

By MGN EditorialAugust 14, 2026 at 12:00 PM

Penetron has expanded its West Coast sales and technical support capabilities with the appointment of Bobby Brewster as regional Account Manager, signalling continued growth in the North American construction materials market.

Concrete waterproofing specialist Penetron has bolstered its North American commercial operations with the appointment of Bobby Brewster as West Coast USA Account Manager, effective August 3rd, 2026, according to a company announcement via PR Newswire. The appointment reflects Penetron's ongoing commitment to strengthening technical and customer support across the western United States, a region the company identifies as a key growth market. Brewster joins an established team focused on delivering crystalline waterproofing solutions used across a range of heavy civil and marine infrastructure applications, including port facilities, dry docks, seawalls, and marine terminals. Penetron's crystalline waterproofing technology is widely specified in maritime and coastal construction projects, where concrete structures face persistent exposure to saltwater, hydrostatic pressure, and aggressive chemical environments. The company's products are used in the construction and rehabilitation of below-grade marine structures, pump stations, and harbour infrastructure — sectors that demand long-term durability and resistance to water ingress. The expansion of the West Coast team positions Penetron to better serve contractors, engineers, and project owners engaged in port development and coastal infrastructure projects across California, the Pacific Northwest, and neighbouring states — areas that have seen sustained investment in port modernisation and climate-resilient infrastructure in recent years. No further details regarding Brewster's professional background were disclosed in the initial announcement. The company is headquartered in Orlando, Florida, and operates through a global network of licensees and regional representatives. *Source: PR Newswire / Penetron*
