It was fantastic to meet so many of our customers and to make new contacts at this year’s Southern Manufacturing event. Thanks for visiting us!

For the whole of January (and November, and before Christmas!) and the first few days of February, all eyes in the office are on getting ready and then getting to Farnborough to prepare our stand for opening on 3rd February: a lot of preparation goes into the final outcome that is ‘Astec Precision at Southern Manufacturing 2026‘.

Over the three days we really enjoyed the buzz of this packed event, with people all around the aisles of the Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, admiring and querying products and materials, AI processes, machining and robotics demos, and meeting people at all levels of industry, from independent organisations like ours to the big global players. We met and shared ideas with designers, production teams, electronics experts and suppliers, all enthusiastic to share our innovations in improving and future-proofing processes for clients and entire supply chains.

Thanks for stopping by

If you dropped by to get more information on how we can help, we would like to thank you again for your time, and we will be in touch very soon about the next steps. And if you stopped to say hi, thank you for that too; we love the friendly atmosphere of the exhibition centre and we’re already looking forward to next year’s event.

Please feel free to drop us a line with any follow-up questions and we’ll get back to you.
