16th July 2019

Selecta Systems announces with great sadness the passing of its Technical Manager, Richard Bent, who died on Sunday (July 14) after a short illness.

Richard joined Selecta in 2005 as Technical Manager with many years of experience in the industry. He was predominantly office based and colleagues say he built up an excellent rapport with customers and staff with his friendly and approachable personality. His industry and technical knowledge recently enabled Selecta to develop and achieve PAS 24 on patio doors, whilst also being a major part of the team in helping to achieve SBD, PAS 24 and Document Q certification for a range of products.

Sales Director Andy Green led the tributes, saying: “Richard was a well-liked and popular member of the team and we are deeply shocked and saddened by his sudden passing. We have lost an experienced and valuable member of the team.

“Our thoughts are with his wife, Ronnie and his family and friends at this sad and difficult time. Richard was part of the ‘family’”

Details of his funeral will be announced in due course for those wishing to pay their respects.
