Igus celebrates 25 years in the UK

Igus has enjoyed an eventful quarter of a century in the UK, starting from small beginnings as a supplier of a limited number of components, and growing rapidly to become one of the most respected manufacturers in the country. These days, igus offers an unrivalled range of plastic plain bearings, spherical bearings, linear guides, cable carriers and continuous-flex cables, while also producing fully integrated systems.

Managing director, Matthew Aldridge, has been with the company since its early days: “Over the last 25 years, igus has grown considerably and been involved with many high-profile projects. We’re looking forward to the next 25 years.”

During this year’s MACH exhibition at the NEC, igus formally celebrated its 25th anniversary within the machine tooling industry. Viewers of this week’s video of the week will see some of the highlights of the busy show and may spot themselves on the stand – if you do, please tweet us at @igusUK using the hashtag #spotigus and we’ll send you a gift.

Igus can be found at an exhibition on average every four weeks – upcoming shows include Automechanika Birmingham, Hillhead, and Manufacturing & Engineering North East. If you are registered to attend any of these events, please do drop by our stand.
