Pneumatic components are the building blocks of compressed-air-powered systems used in industrial automation, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. Pneumatics Group Ireland stocks over 25,000 pneumatic components from leading brands including Festo, Metal Work, Emerson Aventics, and Clippard available for same-day dispatch from Dublin.
Your production line depends on pneumatic components performing reliably, shift after shift. A single failed cylinder or blocked valve can halt output, trigger maintenance callouts, and cost thousands in downtime. Pneumatics Group supplies the pneumatic components Irish manufacturers, engineers, and OEMs depend on with the stock depth and technical expertise to solve problems fast.
Pneumatic components convert compressed air into controlled mechanical movement or regulate airflow within a system. They are used everywhere compressed air powers machinery from food packaging lines to pharmaceutical filling equipment, from automotive body shops to semiconductor fabs.
The key pain points Irish engineers face when sourcing pneumatic components include:
Pneumatics Group solves all four. We hold stock, carry legacy compatibility ranges, stock food-grade and ATEX-rated variants, and provide free pre-sales technical advice.

Metal Work is an Italian company specialised in the production of pneumatic components for automation systems. We currently market five different product ranges: actuators, valves, FRL units, fittings and handling components, all of which appear in our catalogue which contains over 1800 pages.
NOVACOM is based in the heart of Europe, in the north of France. The company has been designing, manufacturing, and developing vacuum components for more than 30 years.
As a genuine vacuum specialist and leader on the market, NOVACOM has never ceased to innovate and evolve. The company now has the most extensive line of vacuum components in Europe, meeting the needs of all applications in industrial environments: standard and special suction cups, single-stage, multi-stage, anti-clogging, and pneumatic transport ejectors (or vacuum pumps), air amplifiers, air nozzles, air curtains, vacuum filters, clamping grippers, air nippers, gripping heads, membranes, and other vacuum accessories.
All pneumatic cylinders are actuators, but not all actuators are cylinders. A pneumatic actuator is any device that converts compressed air into mechanical motion — this includes cylinders (linear), rotary actuators (turning), and grippers. The term “pneumatic cylinder” refers specifically to linear-motion devices with a piston.
