Sakaev will lead activities in the Southwestern U.S., including California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and Hawaii.
With experience in developing sales territories, Sakaev will be key in the growth of acceptance and use of MMFX uncoated corrosion-resistant and high-strength reinforcing steel products in the Southwestern U.S. His abilities will be an asset to engineers who are looking for solutions to extend the life-cycle of their design projects or lower construction cost through the use of Grade 100 reinforcing steel.
“Arthur will help maintain momentum as engineers continue to implement the MMFX corrosion-resistant and high-strength steel technology,” said Kevin Bates, vice president of sales and marketing for MMFX Steel Corporation of America. “The Southwest has numerous construction settings including corrosive coastal environments and high-rise building where Arthur can present new solutions to solve difficult construction problems.”

Prior to working for CONTECH he was a field engineer and designer for EDS, a quality assurance coordinator for Dichtomatik Americas, and a civil engineering field technician for GME Consultants Inc.
