FOREL UK & Ireland has signed a two-year agreement to become a Premium PiGs Sponsor for 2026 and 2027, further strengthening its close relationship with PiGs AKA People in Glazing Society.

Brian McDonald, CEO for glass machinery experts FOREL UK and Ireland, said: “As a long-term supporter of PiGs, we wanted to show our continued commitment by becoming a Premium PiGs Sponsor, especially as this FOREL cerebrates its 50th anniversary.

“PiGs networking offers brilliant opportunities across the year to meet people in the industry. Over the years, I have attended so many of the PiGs events and value the relaxed approach to networking. Now with the addition of STY News, it fills the gaps between the live events, and keeps everyone updated with what’s going on in the industry.”

STY Master Sarah Ball added: “Brian is one of our longest-standing members, having been involved throughout the 22 years PiGs has been running. When I took over the organisation of the events 12 years ago, Brian has been a great supporter. As PiGs has evolved, he has been one of our biggest champions, and we are truly happy to have FOREL in the STY as a Premium PiGs Sponsor.”

Premium PiGs Sponsors support PiGs through both annual sponsorship and having a banner on STY News, maximising their brand visibility and connection to the PiGs community.
