Family day marks 50th anniversary of Burnside Autocyl
Friends and families of employees at Burnside Autocyl mark its 50th anniversary
AN INCREDIBLE five decades of business, from humble beginnings to becoming global leaders, was celebrated at Burnside Autocyl recently.
Burnside Autocyl marked its 50th anniversary as the team in Tullow took time out recently to reflect on the remarkable journey that has brought them to this milestone.
The business opened its doors to all employees, their families and friends to see the inner workings of the firm and to view where their friends and relatives work daily as a team to make Burnside Autocyl a success.
The younger visitors greatly enjoyed seeing the robotics in action and getting to learn about how the machinery works.
Since the founding of the company in 1974 by the four Byrne brothers from Graiguenaspidogue, it has grown from a small start-up to a global leader in hydraulic cylinders.
Today there are three separate Burnside companies in Co Carlow, making it one of the largest employers in the county.
Over the past five decades, the company has overcome challenges, adapted to changing times and continued to innovate and excel in everything it does. The company therefore has every reason to celebrate 50 years of excellence.
Its success is a testament to the hard work, dedication and vision of the founders, employees, customers and partners.
“Today is all about our great employees here at Tullow,” said MD Pat Byrne.
“We are honoured to welcome them with their friends and families to a day of celebration and gratitude for all they have done and continue to do every day to ensure the ongoing success of the business.
“A dedicated team working together such as ours has unlimited possibilities. As we celebrate this special occasion, we look back with pride on our accomplishments and forward with excitement to the future,” said Pat.
“We remain committed to supporting our employees and communities and upholding the values that have guided us since the beginning.
“To all who have been a part of the journey, we say ‘thank you’. Your support and loyalty have been instrumental in our success and we look forward to many more years of collaboration and growth together,” concluded Pat.
Here's to the next 50 years of Burnside Autocyl – may they be even more prosperous and fulfilling than the last!
