Cordex has opened an online store for Ireland, according to company-supplied copy published by Agriland, selling baling and silage supplies directly from the manufacturer through a local hub, giving farmers and contractors a shorter route to products made by the company itself.

Agriland’s copy said Irish farmers and contractors can now order baling and silage supplies online at any time for delivery to the farm, and that Cordex has invested in an Irish hub to keep supplies close and make quick deliveries; the article gives no investment figure, hub location or job numbers.

The same copy said Cordex manufactures the baling supplies itself, sees Ireland as a key market and intends to build lasting relationships directly with Irish farmers and agricultural contractors, and invited visitors to meet the company at the FTMTA Show.

Agriland’s copy said Cordex is not new to Ireland, adding that the company’s quality is its future because it makes baling supplies rather than only trading them.

According to Cordex’s Irish store page, the range comprises round bale net, polypropylene baler twine and premium silage film, with free shipping and ordering available 24 hours a day, and a regional selector for Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Cordex is a manufacturer of silage film, round bale net wrap and baler twine for professional agriculture, which its group website says has over 50 years of experience, European manufacturing and certified quality, and runs country stores for the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Poland, Sweden, the UK and Ireland.

The launch reflects manufacturers selling consumables directly to farmers rather than through merchants, with a local hub offering the speed and availability the Agriland copy emphasises.

Market forecasts for the product category vary, but MarketsandMarkets estimates the global agricultural films market at $15.5bn in 2026, growing 6.86 per cent a year to $21.6bn by 2031, with dairy demand among the drivers.

For the sector, a direct online channel with local stock shows manufacturers of agricultural consumables competing on delivery speed and availability, not product claims alone.

The wider signal for the sector is that agricultural supply manufacturers are building local stock and direct digital sales in Ireland, though Cordex has not published hub, investment or employment figures.
