From awards to expos – here’s how 2025 shaped up at Abbey Seals

January 2026

🏆Kicking off strong at the Guaranteed Irish Business Awards

We were proud to be shortlisted in not one, but two categories! While we didn’t take home the trophy this time, we’re thrilled to be finalists again in 2026 – this time in the Construction, Manufacturing & Engineering category. Fingers crossed! 🤞

🌍Then it was off to Hannover Messe

Our first major trade show of the year – and what a week! From world-class technology to meaningful conversations, it was a fantastic opportunity to connect, learn, and showcase what Abbey Seals brings to the global manufacturing stage. We're looking forward to returning in 2026, bigger and better than ever!

🛠️CQMS didn’t disappoint

Thanks to everyone who popped by Zone 2, Stand 7 – whether you were checking out our seal kits, chatting about gaskets, or diving into our bespoke manufacturing solutions, it was a fantastic few days of industry insights and inspiration.

In August, our team gathered for a jam-packed morning of strategy, feedback, and future planning. A massive shoutout to the Abbey Seals crew who brought energy, ideas, and commitment to pushing things forward. The future looks strong.

Our stand was buzzing from start to finish – with big crowds, great conversations, and a whole lot of orange sunglasses. 🧡🕶️ It was a true celebration of community, industry, and the Irish spirit. Looking forward to doing it all again in 2026!

Two brilliant shows that closed 2025 with a bang. We met future partners, tackled some challenging sealing questions, and got to share our bespoke solutions with even more of the industry. Exactly how we like it. Looking ahead to 2026...

We’re building on this momentum with even more exciting things in the works – more events, new innovations, and the same customer-first mindset that drives everything we do. Thanks for being part of our journey – here's to a successful 2026!
