Mark Mohn joins Sencon

Sencon, supplier of sensors, gauges, and line control systems for the metal packaging industry, has announced the appointment of Mark Mohn as sales manager for the Americas.

With over 30 years of deep-rooted experience in metal packaging, Mohn joins Sencon at a pivotal moment as the company celebrates its 50th anniversary of innovation and service to the global can making industry.

Mohn, who is based in Dayton, Ohio, is a well-known figure across the sector, having built a reputation for a hands-on, “full-cycle” approach that spans sales, installation and technical support. His career began in automation and controls, often spent on the production floor working directly with the machinery and people that drive the industry.

This appointment coincides with a significant milestone for Sencon. Founded in 1976 by Winston Shields, the company continues to operate as a family-owned, independent entity committed to engineering precision.

Eric Shields, president of Sencon, commented: “As we celebrate Sencon’s 50th anniversary, we are proud to continue my father’s values. Bringing Mark Mohn into the fold is a testament to that. Mark’s technical depth and commitment to the ‘hands-on’ side of the business reflect the core values Sencon was built on. Sencon isn’t only selling products; we are providing knowledge and support. Mark is the ideal person to lead that mission.”

Throughout his career, Mark has been recognised for his ability to bridge the gap between legacy mechanical equipment and modern electronic diagnostics. His philosophy aligns seamlessly with Sencon’s commitment to providing intuitive, high-performance solutions that improve reliability and ease of use for plant operators.

“This industry feels like home to me,” said Mohn. “I’ve always thrived in environments where I can wear multiple hats and solve real-world problems for customers. It really comes down to ethics and empathy. Customers need to know that you’ll do the right thing and that you won’t disappear when there’s a problem. Joining Sencon is the perfect fit and I look forward to leveraging my experience to help our partners in the Americas optimise their production lines.”

Mohn is eager to connect with both long-standing colleagues and new partners to discuss how Sencon’s latest innovations can add value to your operations. He can be contacted at: [email protected].
