Lowflo Sustainable Water Management has opened its new Dublin engineering headquarters, announcing plans to create 150 engineering and technical jobs by 2030. The water infrastructure specialist will grow its engineering workforce from more than 50 to 200 employees across Ireland and international markets.

The company officially opened its engineering headquarters at Rosemount Business Park as it marked 20 years in business. The new roles will span engineering, specialist water services, technology, operations and business support, expanding Lowflo's technical delivery capacity.

Established in 2006, Lowflo engineers water management systems and technologies designed to reduce water loss, improve network efficiency and enhance the resilience of critical water infrastructure. Its engineering toolkit includes satellite-based leak detection, pressure management systems, digital monitoring and data-driven analysis, engineered to help customers identify hidden leaks and reduce water consumption.

The company's engineering teams work with utilities, local authorities and organisations across sectors including healthcare, pharmaceutical manufacturing, commercial development and data centres. Lowflo also operates a Cork engineering office, alongside its new Dublin headquarters.

Charles Dwyer, chief executive officer of Lowflo, said: "Opening our new headquarters is a very proud moment for everyone at Lowflo. It reflects how far we have come over the past 20 years and represents our confidence in the future of the company." Dwyer added: "We've grown to a team of over 50 people today and we're excited to build on that momentum as we work towards a workforce of 200 in the coming years. This new headquarters gives us the platform to accelerate our growth, expand our capabilities, develop new services and create high-quality jobs as we enter the next chapter for Lowflo."

Dwyer said: "As demand for water continues to increase, and network leakage continues to challenge water utilities and businesses, we want to invest in our people, technology and expertise so that we can continue helping our customers reduce water loss and build stronger, more resilient water networks."

For the sector, Lowflo's expansion reflects growing engineering investment in specialist water management technology as Irish companies scale technical and leak-detection engineering capability for both domestic and international markets.
