Co-founded by Evan Roarke and Kealan O’Connell, Nualach Automation is an automation machine builder and service provider which prides itself in turning complex automation challenges into solutions.

The company delivers “turn key solutions, machine upgrades and production support” for large multinational companies and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) across Ireland.

Kealan explained how “in less than four years” the company has grown from himself and Evan working in the evenings and weekends, to a “10-person staff business” and a turnover of €1.2 million this year.

Nualach Automation also recently moved to a new building with a custom, fit-out work space and office space for its “growing team” in Virginia.

“We have delivered a number of machines to world-leading medical device companies,” said Kealan, naming Medtronic and Abbotts in Cootehill among its client list, with “opportunity” inside such companies “increasing".
