About Cleantech Civils
Established in 1968, Cleantech Civils is in a position to celebrate 55 years of success due to a number of factors, not least because of our unwavering commitment to our clients and personnel. Click on the link below for a snapshot of our works.
Our Past
Cleantech Civils is a Civil Engineering company, founded in 1968 by the Smith family. Our mission was to create a business that provides clients with truly exceptional civil engineering services and results. Thanks to a combination of determination, unflinching ambition, and the support of the local community, the Smith family created a company that is still growing to this day – over five decades later!
While our initial service offering (of P & S as we were known) was to install local, rural water schemes, the company grew exponentially over the next five decades. Soon, thanks to a nationwide expansion programme, our services included water, wastewater and the built environment sectors. Operating on various projects including, building and upgrading water and sewer pipelines, treatment plants, pumping stations, power, renewable power, industrial, food, pharma and road construction. We develop substations, install cables and jointing, and even construct wind farms as part of the Energy Sector that we broke into in the early 2000s.
P & S Civil Works Ltd was rebranded as Cleantech Civils and now operates across Ireland and the UK. Today, more than 55 years later, a second generation of Smiths and our dedicated teams work tirelessly to realise our founders’ dreams of creating civil engineering services that are synonymous with quality service. Our family-owned business may have changed over the years to provide a more diverse selection of construction and civil engineering solutions to our clients, but our core values have remained the same from the very first day.
It’s thanks to these values that we were finally able to achieve our goal of receiving our ISO 45001, ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 accreditations in 2010. With these concrete roadmaps for the management of procedures and processes to a high standard, we’re set to achieve even more incredible results for our team, our clients, and the world around us.
ZERO Programme
Our ISO accreditations are our way of strengthening our offers in the Safety, Environmental and Quality Management Systems, and by using them as a launchpad for new, more diverse company strategies, we created the ZERO Programme.
This programme is our way of driving cultural change within our company by making each of our team members key stakeholders in the health, quality, safety, environment, and wellbeing of our business and everyone in it. The purpose of this programme is to ensure that every member of the team goes home safe at the end of every working day.
We believe that our company – and the construction and civil engineering solutions we specialise in – play a key role in the world’s movement towards net zero carbon emissions. We will continue to provide our clients with professional civil engineering projects in Ireland and the UK so that we can showcase and strengthen the circular economy principles that will help us cut down on the resources we use and the negative environmental impacts on those resources.
Under the compassionate and future-thinking leadership of Killian Smith, our Managing Director who stepped into the role in 2010, we’re working towards better company efficiency, more diverse capacities and roles, and constant innovation in our industry.
Whether urban, rural, private or public, our clients are our top priority. We’re committed to serving each sector – be it water, wastewater, power, utilities, industrial, pharma, healthcare, housing or heritage – with the same level of professionalism and integrity. We’re ready to play the role of main contractor and PSCS, PSDP, principal contractor, principal designer or contractor to ensure that we can exceed our customer expectations, every single time.
Our stakeholders play a huge role in the success and health of our business, which is why we collaborate to offer our expertise and guidance they need regarding best practices and methodological innovation.
