10+ Years Together: Recognising Our Long-Standing Customers

Some of our customers have been working with Emydex for more than 10 years. Others are now approaching 15 or even 20 years with us.

That is something we are very proud of, and something we do not take for granted.

A lot can change over a decade. Businesses grow, sites expand, technology moves on and new challenges emerge. During that time, our teams have continued working closely with these customers, supporting their operations and adapting our solutions as their needs have changed.

For us, the fact that so many of these relationships have lasted for 10, 15 and 20+ years says a lot about the way we work with our customers.

Recognising our long-standing customers

To recognise these milestones, we have created a series of Customer Milestone Plaques for customers who have been with Emydex for more than a decade.

Each plaque marks an important milestone in our relationship with that customer and recognises the many years we have worked together.

The plaques are now being prepared for delivery to our long-standing customers across the markets we serve.

And if your company has been with us for more than 10 years, you know who you are.

Keep an eye out. Something may be heading your way soon.

Thank you to all our long-standing customers for being part of the Emydex story.

Better Again: Emydex Retains Great Place to Work Certification for a Third Year

Based on anonymous employee feedback, the 2026 results gave Emydex an 81% overall positivity score, up from 80% in 2025 and 73% in 2024, with 96% of employees taking part in the survey, our highest participation rate to date. 

It is a result we are proud of, but also one that says something about the people behind Emydex. 

The People Behind the Technology 

Camaraderie was our strongest dimension this year, at 91%. Almost all respondents said Emydex is a physically safe place to work and that people are made to feel welcome when they join, and 96% said they can be themselves here. 

Developers work closely with project teams, project teams work directly with customers, and support teams draw on knowledge built up across the business. People rely on each other every day.

David McMahon, CEO of Emydex, said:  

Three years in, the trend keeps moving the right way. What I take most pride in is that our people can see the link between what they told us last year and what actually changed this year. That’s what makes a survey worth doing again. 

A Culture That Has to Keep Evolving 

Receiving the certification for a third year does not mean the employee experience is finished, or that there is nothing left to improve. One of the main reasons we keep taking part in Great Place to Work is the feedback itself. The survey gives our people an independent, anonymous way to tell us what is working and where they want to see change. 

Confidence that Emydex will act on that feedback reached 80% this year. Asking people what they think only has value when their answers stay part of the conversation afterwards. 

Urszula Stawicka, who leads culture and engagement at Emydex, added:  

An 81% score is a good headline, but the 96% response rate tells us just as much. People took the time to answer because they trust that we listen. Our job now is to keep giving them reasons to.

As Emydex continues to grow, we want to keep building a company where experienced people want to stay, new people feel welcome, and teams can do their best work together. 

Thank you to everyone who took part in this year’s survey, and to the wider Emydex team who shape our culture every day.

Emydex Recognised as One of Ireland’s Best Workplaces for Health & Wellbeing 2026 by Great Place to Work

Emydex Technology is proud to be recognised as one of Ireland’s Best Workplaces for Health & Wellbeing 2026, awarded by Great Place to Work®.

This recognition is based on employee feedback and is part of the global Best Workplaces methodology. It highlights organisations that support employee health, mental wellbeing and a balanced working environment.

Wellbeing in action across our teams

Over the past 12 months, wellbeing at Emydex has been reflected in the way our teams spend time together, both inside and outside of work.

Across the year, our colleagues have taken part in more than six runs together, alongside several hikes and a range of informal activities that bring people together in a more relaxed way. From friendly games in the office to shared moments outside of it, these experiences have become a natural part of how our teams connect.

Some of these moments have also taken place internationally. This includes travelling to Lübeck to take part in the Lübeck Marathon alongside colleagues and our partners at BAADER, combining a shared challenge with the opportunity to strengthen relationships across teams.

One of the highlights this year was Emydex Move 26, a global wellbeing challenge that encouraged employees to stay active and build healthy habits. Colleagues from across our teams, not only in Ireland but around the world, logged their activities and took part together. It created a strong sense of shared momentum and was a great way to start the year.

The everyday environment matters

Back in the office, it is often the small things that make a difference.

A quick game of pool or darts, taking a break to catch up with colleagues, or having fresh fruit available throughout the day all contribute to a more balanced and enjoyable working environment.

We also support our teams through regular health initiatives, encouraging everyone to take a proactive approach to their wellbeing.

Being recognised as one of Ireland’s Best Workplaces for Health & Wellbeing reflects the experience our teams have every day. It comes from consistency, shared experiences and a culture where people feel supported and comfortable doing their best work.

As Emydex continues to grow internationally, maintaining a strong workplace culture and supporting employee wellbeing remains a key focus.

We would like to thank all our colleagues across Emydex for making this recognition possible.

Emydex Recognised as One of Ireland’s Best Workplaces 2026

Emydex has been named one of Ireland’s Best Workplaces™ 2026 by Great Place to Work® Ireland.

This recognition follows our recent Great Place to Work Certification and places Emydex among organisations recognised for building high-trust, high-performance workplace cultures nationwide.

This year, more than 30,000 employees across Ireland participated in the national assessment process. Inclusion in the Best Workplaces™ list reflects comparative performance among certified organisations and reinforces the strength of our internal culture.

From Certification to National Recognition

In September, we shared the news of our Great Place to Work Certification, highlighting the strong employee engagement results achieved across our teams. That milestone marked an important validation of the culture we continue to strengthen across our global operations.

Being named among Ireland’s Best Workplaces™ represents a further step forward. It confirms that our workplace standards not only meet recognised benchmarks, but stand out within a competitive national landscape.

Culture as a Strategic Driver

As a technology partner to the global food processing industry, Emydex operates in complex, performance-driven environments. Delivering consistent results across regions requires clarity of leadership, accountability at every level and strong cross-functional collaboration.

We view culture as a strategic driver of performance. The strength of our internal alignment directly supports the reliability, innovation and long-term partnerships we build with customers worldwide.

Leadership Perspective

Commenting on the recognition, David McMahon, CEO of Emydex Technology Ltd, said:

As Emydex continues to grow across international markets, culture remains a strategic priority. Recognition as one of Ireland’s Best Workplaces™ reinforces that we are building a resilient organisation, capable of sustaining performance while staying true to our values.

Strong companies are built on strong teams, and this acknowledgement reflects the calibre and commitment of our people.”

A Foundation for Sustainable Growth

As Emydex expands across Europe, Australasia and North America, maintaining a cohesive and high-performing workplace culture remains central to our long-term strategy.

Recognition among Ireland’s Best Workplaces™ 2026 affirms that we are building not only scalable technology solutions for the food processing sector, but also a strong organisational foundation designed to support continued international growth.

We thank our teams across all regions whose professionalism and commitment make this possible.

We are delighted to retain the GPTW certification for 2025, and especially happy to see a 7% overall improvement to score an 80% positive response. The devil’s in the details; the particular statement from this year’s survey I take pride in is the one where 80% of our employees say they want to work in Emydex for a long time!”

HR Perspective

Adding to the celebration, Hazel Plunkett, Head of HR, People and Culture, noted:

This certification is a reflection of the culture we’ve built together, one that values openness, fairness, and belonging. It’s incredibly rewarding to see our people feel empowered and proud to be part of Emydex. We’ll continue to listen, evolve, and invest in what makes our workplace thrive.”

Why GPTW Matters to Emydex

At Emydex, we believe that a great workplace is one where people feel valued, empowered, and connected. The Great Place to Work certification is not just a badge, it’s a reflection of our strategic focus on culture, our investment in people, and our commitment to ethical leadership.

As a technology company serving global clients in food processing and manufacturing, our success depends on the talent, integrity, and collaboration of our teams. The GPTW recognition validates that we are on the right path—and motivates us to keep improving.

Looking Ahead

We will continue to build on this momentum by:

  • Enhancing internal communication and transparency
  • Supporting career development and learning opportunities
  • Promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion across all regions
  • Recognising and celebrating employee contributions

We thank every member of the Emydex team for making this achievement possible. Together, we are shaping a workplace that reflects our values and drives our mission forward.
