Steel manufacturers EliteForm marked a significant milestone recently as they celebrated the turning of the sod on their brand new 3.2 acre site in Castlebellingham.
“We were honoured to be joined by Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Peter Burke, who helped us officially break ground and mark the beginning of this exciting new chapter”, an EliteForm spokesperson said.
The day kicked off with a guided tour of their manufacturing facility, where Minister Burke had the opportunity to see first-hand the innovation, craftsmanship, and precision engineering that goes into every EliteForm product.
“From cutting-edge machinery to our passionate and skilled team on the floor, it was a proud moment to showcase the heart of our operation” the spokesperson continued.

“A special highlight of the day was the presentation of a custom-made plaque, designed and manufactured in-house by our talented team.
“This one-of-a-kind piece symbolises not just the occasion, but the quality and creativity that define EliteForm.
“It was our honour to present it to Minister Burke as a token of appreciation for his visit and support.”
Louth TD Paula Butterly, several local councillors, and Kevin Nash of Meegan Builders and Brian Hughes and his daughter from Brady Hughes also attended the event.
“And of course, we celebrated with our incredible team, many of whom have been with us since the early days.
“As a proud, family-run Irish business, this expansion represents more than just physical growth—it's a tribute to the people, values, and vision that brought us here.
“Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate—here’s to the next chapter of EliteForm’s journey!”
