ABOUT ABBEY
Abbey Machinery is Ireland’s longest
established manufacturer of
agricultural machinery and is also
one of the largest in Ireland today.
The Cavanagh family started a very successful
foundry business in Abbey Lane, Nenagh over
110 years ago.
At that stage they made the ‘Cavanagh’ plough
which was unique and well ahead of its time,
and this concept is now part of everyday design.
Abbey has given farmers across Northern
Europe the opportunity to use high quality and
reliable farm machinery, with the best possible
results in the most cost effective manner.
Their production facility is one of the most
modern in their country. This serves to ensure
that their customers will have available the
finest range of farm machinery for today’s and
tomorrow’s demanding market.
Abbey produce a large range of machinery, with
their flagship product being recessed axle slurry
tankers. They also produce a large range of
diet feeders, a full range of slurry tankers, pond
stirrers, toppers, umbilical slurry systems and
muck spreaders.
Their number one priority is quality. Abbey
produce very high quality, robust farm
machinery built to last. Ireland has some
demanding terrain and intensive farming, which
in turn demands high quality, lasting machinery.
Abbey also pride themselves in having a
flexible manufacturing plant which means they
can produce customised machines for specific
requirements.
Invest in experience, quality and robust
equipment. Abbey Machinery, since 1947.
