ATHENS, Georgia ― Fowler Products, powered by ProMach, Inc., announced today that Randy Uebler is the division’s new Vice President and General Manager. Uebler will report to Don Cotney, the former General Manager of Fowler Products, who was recently promoted to President of ProMach’s Bottling & Capping Business Unit. Fowler Products manufactures Fowler/Zalkin high-speed capping machinery and Fowler cap sorting and feeding systems.
Uebler has served in General Manager positions since 2003, initially at KHS Bartelt Division / KHS USA and then at Mamata Enterprises, Inc. Both companies engineer and manufacture packaging equipment. While at KHS USA, Uebler was the product manager for capping systems. He has also held mechanical engineering, sales engineering, and project management responsibilities with Intel and Alcoa CSI. Uebler, who earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology, holds patents for both capping and pouch transport technologies.
“Of all of the candidates we considered, Randy stood out, not only because of his broad management and customer engagement experience, but also for his collaborative and consensus building management style,” Cotney said. “It is a style that is an excellent fit for Fowler. With ProMach’s recent acquisition of Zalkin, a worldwide leader in capping equipment, Fowler will continue to strongly develop its presence in the U.S. marketplace and also contribute to the Zalkin activity on a more global scale. Randy will provide the leadership for this growth.”
“What attracted me to Fowler Products was the scope of the job, the U.S. and global growth potential brought about by the new close relationship between Fowler and Zalkin, and Fowler’s exemplary reputation for delivering on its promises to customers,” Uebler said. “I wanted to come here and be part of this dynamic group.”
