Fruehauf closes out its strongest Ploughing Championships to date

Three days at Screggan brought a steady flow of operators to the Fruehauf stand, where tipping trailers and the Bulk Blower were on display alongside customer units heading out to work in Ireland.

Fruehauf has wrapped up three days at the 2026 National Ploughing Championships at Screggan, Tullamore – the manufacturer’s strongest showing at the event to date.

Across the three days the stand welcomed a steady flow of visitors, from long-standing Fruehauf customers to operators meeting the brand for the first time, from across Ireland and further afield. It was an opportunity to catch up with familiar faces, talk through future trailer requirements and introduce more people to the Fruehauf range.

On the stand

On display this year was a selection of Fruehauf tipping trailers alongside the Fruehauf Bulk Blower, with bodies raised so visitors could look closely at the build quality, design and engineering behind the trailers – and compare specifications side by side rather than on paper.

The show also gave the team direct access to operators and hauliers from right across the industry, a chance to hear feedback first-hand and discuss how Fruehauf can support their fleets going forward. That conversation is a large part of why the company commits to the event each year.

A busy three days

With 87,000 people through the gates on the Wednesday alone, the stand remained busy throughout, and the level of interest and customer engagement made the 2026 show a clear success for Fruehauf.

“It’s our third year exhibiting at the show, and we’re delighted to say that we really feel we’ve cemented our place here. It was fantastic to see so many of our existing customers returning to the stand, catching up with familiar faces and hearing how they’re getting on with our equipment. At the same time, welcoming so many new customers and new faces was a real highlight.”

– Tiarnan O’Hanlon, Business Development Manager, Ireland & Wales, Fruehauf

Thanks go to everyone who took the time to visit the stand, speak with the team and see the trailers up close – and to the customers who allowed Fruehauf to showcase their new trailers at the event.

After three days like that, one thing is certain: Fruehauf will be back at the National Ploughing Championships. We’re already looking forward to the next one.
