2025. THAT’S A WRAP! A YEARLY ROUNDUP OF THE NEWS FROM FLOTEC.

As we skyrocket towards Christmas and the New Year, let’s firstly reflect upon Flotec’s 2025, before looking towards the journey ahead.

CELEBRATING THIRTY YEARS OF SUCCESS.

Flotec kicked the year off with a bang, publicly announcing its thirty-year partnership with Gates Hydraulics.

Gates is a global hydraulic hose and end coupling OEM.

FULL STEAM AHEAD WITH THE RAILWAY INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION.

In April 2025, SME railway supplier, Flotec, applied for and was granted membership to the Railway Industry Association (RIA).

The Railway Industry Association was founded in 1875 and according to its website, has played a critical role in moulding the modern rail industry across the UK.

Having already been a Rail Business Daily (RBD) community member for several years, when news broke about the merger between RBD and RIA, it made sense for Flotec to engage and get onboard with the amalgamation.
