Brian Deluce retires after over 40 years in the industry 30 November 2020

After nearly two decades with specialist fixing supplier JCP Construction Products Ltd, Technical Manager Brian Deluce is retiring.

Although he has been with JCP for 19 years, Brian has actually been in the industry for over 40 years.  Brian joined JCP from Ramset Fasteners, just six months after the company’s launch in 2001.

Responsible for all technical aspects, Brian has developed and implemented a comprehensive technical library, which is used by many specifiers of JCP fixings. Responsible for achieving European Technical Assessments (ETAs) on products, Brian has also carried out thousands of on-site tests for customers.

He has seen JCP grow to the multi-million-pound division of Owlett-Jaton that it is today and has been instrumental in developing the technical approach and service provided.

Reza Jafari succeeds Brian and has been with JCP since 2017. Employed as assistant technical manager, Brian took Reza under his wing to show him the ropes. In 2019 Reza was promoted to technical manager when Brian reduced his days to consider his retirement plans. 

A keen diver, Brian plans on spending his days on his boat enjoying the good old British weather. Everybody at JCP and Owlett-Jaton wishes him a happy and well deserved retirement.
