NEW YORK — Crompion International LLC has named Amy Jo Dieffenbauch vice president of technical sales.

Dieffenbauch joins the stainless steel producer from Benwood, W.Va.-based Leveltek Processing LLC, where she had been sales and marketing manager since December 2006. She recently served as vice president of the Pittsburgh chapter of the Association of Women in the Metal Industries.

"She will not only strengthen our presence in the various industries which we pursue, but will give us new perspective and technical sales experience as we expand our services and offerings domestically and overseas," Crompion president George M. Schaffer said in a statement.

The Baton Rouge, La.-based specialty stainless steel producer had been known as American Utility Metals LLC until its rebranding in November 2012.
