REHAU UK has appointed Matthew Edney to Regional Sales Manager for the South of England, with a focus on expanding its commercial plumbing and heating solutions product category.
He joined REHAU’s Building Solutions team in March 2025 following over 20 years’ experience in the construction industry working in sales and operations management, where he has predominantly worked with premium brands.
Matthew’s appointment provides REHAU with a highly specialised skillset from a varied HVAC technical sales career. With a strong focus on HVAC specification, he will be working with consultants and contractors on securing specifications of REHAU polymer products.
As part of his new role, Matthew will be focusing on showcasing REHAU’s expanding product range, particularly promoting its premium commercial plumbing portfolio, including key products such as REHAU’s complete O-ring free system comprised of RAUTITAN and PP-R fiber.
REHAU’s focus on people has recently been recognised in the form of a Great Place to Work® award, with REHAU also placing within the UK’s top 100 Best Places to Work™ in the large category.
“I am delighted to be working with one of the global market-leading manufacturers of heating and plumbing systems,” says Matthew. “REHAU offer quality solutions for sustainable construction, and I am thrilled to be a part of it all.
“I hope to take full advantage of my existing network and industry knowledge to make a running start. I will be channelling all my efforts into enhancing REHAU’s profile in this key region, working closely with Andrew Weir.
“While my inside knowledge of the industry has made the onboarding process much easier, the team have been really welcoming and their help and guidance has been truly invaluable.”
Steve Richmond, Head of Marketing & Technical for REHAU’s Building Solution division in the UK & Ireland, at REHAU UK, said: “On behalf of REHAU, I would like to congratulate Matthew on his appointment to his new role. Matthew’s impressive career and in-depth industry knowledge was impossible to ignore, and we are very happy that he decided to join us on the Building Solutions team. We strongly believe that Matthew will strengthen and expand our presence in the area, building on his career.”
