On the Pulse with Pat – April

/in /by

Happy Easter! April has flown in this year. What a great Q1 we’ve had at ALS Identify. Did you see the videos of all the machines gone out in the last number of weeks on LinkedIn? The workshop has been full to the brim and we’re looking forward to filling it back up again with new projects in the coming weeks.

Sadly we didn’t take home any glassware from the SFA Small Business Awards last month but what a calibre of businesses to be shortlisted alongside. Congratulations to Lawrence Engineering on their win and Hygeia on their commendation. It was a fantastic night at the RDS and a great opportunity to put on the glad rags with some of the team.

Last month you might remember I mentioned the recruitment we’re doing at the moment. We’re still looking for the right fit for our Project Engineer role. We’ve also opened up a second Field Service Engineer role due to increased demand. So if you, or someone you know, fits the bill and wants to join a growing and busy team, you can check out the job spec here for full application details.

This week we’ve welcomed Francesca Santoro-Ferrer as our new Internal Sales Representative and next week we’ll be welcoming our new field Service Engineer
We’ve also had a new addition to the ALS Identify family though our Sales Engineer Aidan who, along with his wife, welcomed a beautiful baby girl late last month.

Did you hear about our new partnership with IMA Phoenix? This partnership expands our labelling automation offering with their innovative modular labelling solutions. Read more on this partnership here.

Welcome to the first in our new series of blog posts. As the manager and owner of ALS Identify, our marketing manager, Gillian, has asked me to craft up a blog post once a month to keep all of our friends, followers, and customers up to date with what’s going on at ALS Identify.

Did you hear we’ve been shortlisted for the SFA Manufacturing Award for 2025? We’re delighted with the shortlist and we are eagerly awaiting the Awards night later this month. As part of our shortlisting, we were invited to exhibit at the SFA Business Connect event in the Kilashee Hotel in Naas last month. It was great to see the calibre of Irish businesses across so many categories.

Check out how busy out workshop is this month! Our teams have been building systems for food, beverage, packaging, and life sciences customers. It’s great to see so many projects coming in meaning that we need to keep expanding our teams. We’ve had 3 new hires already this year, welcoming Peter, Gillian, and Matt to the team and we have the hiring hat on again with three fantastic roles; Internal Sales Rep,  Field Service Engineer and Project Engineer. If you know anyone who fits the bill, please share as we’re keen to get these roles filled quickly.

busy ALS Identify Workshop

For the last couple months, we’ve been working on some exciting end of line automation projects with customers in the life sciences and food sectors. We’ve also built and installed some standard labelling systems for one of our regular food customers. Gillian shared a great video of this on our LinkedIn page.

Have you heard the latest from our partners? In February, Novexx launched the XTP 604, a state-of-the-art single card printer designed exclusively for printing cards. It is a single card printer with thermal transfer printing impresses with a reliable transport system that – in contrast to roll labels – guides the cards to be printed flat through the printing process. Thanks to the choice of two different stacking systems and options, it is suitable for a wide range of card formats. Furthermore, the XTP 604 can be equipped with RFID technology, which offer additional application possibilities in the field of identification.
