Building on its international growth, Duperon Corporation is expanding its focus to the industrial sector, welcoming John Charlton as Regional Sales Manager (RSM) to lead the charge. With over 20 years of experience with water and wastewater technologies, Charlton will work with key partners in sectors like food and beverage and pulp and paper to promote Duperon’s solutions, known for optimizing process wastewater treatment, reducing costs and ensuring regulatory and environmental compliance.

“We are thrilled to welcome John to the Duperon family,” said Mark Turpin, president of Duperon. “This is an exciting time for the water industry, as the focus on water and wastewater treatment continues to grow in both the municipal and industrial sectors. His extensive experience across both areas makes him uniquely qualified for the role, and we are eager to see the valuable contributions he’ll bring to our team.”

Over the past decade, John Charlton has held the role of Regional Sales Manager at a leading manufacturer and supplier of specialty chemicals and nature-based materials. In this position, he successfully managed a multi-million Midwest market, achieving a remarkable increase in annual sales within his first 90 days. Charlton’s extensive experience in the food and beverage sector, along with his work with water treatment solutions providers, has uniquely positioned him to excel in his new role at Duperon.
