History

Four decades delivering engineering solutions for life, data and energy

Founded by the late Noel Doyle in 1984, Suir Engineering, originally known as Suir Electrical, built a reputation for exceptional project delivery in a burgeoning Irish market. Sustained foreign direct investment in life sciences and later data centres provided significant opportunities to partner with some of the world's largest and most successful companies, honing Suir's expertise and providing a solid platform for innovation and growth. International expansion followed as our clients expanded into new markets across Europe and the Middle East.
