IRWM - Environmental Technologies

The Czech Republic is one of the principal regions in Central Europe for the development of environmental technologies and provision of engineering and consulting services for environmental infrastructure. Several experienced companies have joined forces by setting up the Czech Environmental Technologies Team. This partnership is able to provide Irish partners with a full range of recycling, water, air and waste management services.

In the Czech Republic, environmental protection, and the elimination of old environmental problems, became the country's priority at the beginning of the 1990's. A very important condition for the successful clean-up and regeneration of affected areas was the expertise of companies that participated in the process of identification, remediation and monitoring of environmental damage. Due to the unique extent of activities and works carried out, these companies established themselves as regional leaders in providing environmental technologies and delivering services.

International firms often cite several reasons for doing business with companies from the Czech Republic:

  • Significant cost efficiencies
  • Quality of service and long manufacturing tradition
  • Pool of experts - engineers and project managers.
  • EU regulatory environment and experience with international practice
  • Ease of communication
