Central to Tritech’s Five Year Plan is to establish ourselves as the definitive leader in sustainability in Ireland’s M&E sector by delivering verifiable, CSRD-compliant sustainable engineering solutions.
Central to this goal is Tritech’s collaboration with Kayleigh Ann Myles, Sustainability Lead at Lawler Sustainability, to comply with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive across all projects.
This partnership ensures Tritech aligns with the European Green Deal, positioning the company to excel as CSRD compliance becomes mandatory in 2025.
By focusing on providing clients with proven, regulation-ready results that enhance property value and maintaining a sustainability-driven workforce and workplace, Tritech demonstrates an unwavering commitment to practising what it preaches.

Complete and utter transparency.
As engineering evolves to address the triple bottom line of people, planet, and profit, we focus on measurable, verifiable practices that comply with the local and international regulatory environment. From technology innovations to CSRD-compliant reporting, we empower our clients to achieve their performance goals for their real estate investment projects.
1. Emphasis on Measurable Sustainability
Construction and engineering processes must focus on scientifically
validated, provable sustainable practices, particularly for data centre and
pharmaceutical sector projects, to meet regulatory demands and
address climate change.
2. CSRD Compliance Requirements
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), mandatory
from 2025, requires companies to integrate non-financial environmental,
social, and governance (ESG) disclosures into management reports.
Double materiality assessments and data assurance are central to
compliance.
3. Shifting Industry Standards
Traditional “greenwashing” is no longer acceptable; detailed and
transparent reporting of sustainability efforts, aligned with the European
Green Deal, is required to meet legal and market demands.
4. Practical Steps for Compliance
Companies must conduct a gap analysis, collect data for mandatory
disclosures, prepare for third-party assurance, and adopt digital data
tagging to align with CSRD and its 12 reporting standards.
5. Strategic Opportunity for Preparedness
CSRD compliance is both a legal obligation and a competitive
advantage, as companies with robust ESG data will stand out in
procurement processes and stakeholder evaluations, benefiting from
enhanced reputation and market positioning.
At Tritech, sustainability is woven into our culture, driven by a commitment to diversity, respect, and personal development.
Our Green Team leads the charge, raising awareness through training, green challenges, and practical strategies like responsible sourcing, waste reduction, and safe design practices.
Our new partnership with Kayleigh Ann Myles, Sustainability Lead at Lawler Sustainability, strengthens this commitment and ensures accurate CSRD reporting across all projects.
By fostering a sustainability-focused workforce and delivering verifiable, regulation-ready solutions, we demonstrate our dedication to meaningful environmental impact.
Being ISO 14001 certified means that Tritech operates under an internationally recognised Environmental Management System (EMS) framework, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable practices and environmental responsibility. This certification ensures we systematically identify, manage, and reduce our environmental impact while complying with legal and regulatory requirements.
Tritech’s five-year plan aligns with SDGs 9, 11, and 12 by reducing CO2 emissions, improving energy efficiency, and increasing renewable energy use. The strategy supports sustainable cities through reduced embodied carbon and promotes responsible consumption with significant waste reduction and stakeholder engagement in sustainable practices.
Have you the right tools to comply?
By adopting cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality, and Modern Methods of Construction (MMOD), Tritech enhances project efficiency, reduces waste, and improves asset lifecycle performance.
These innovations streamline workflows, boost collaboration, and enable faster, cost-effective project delivery.
Tritech is also building strategic partnerships with technology firms, governments, and investors to strengthen its market position and expand into regions prioritising sustainable development. This approach supports economic growth while advancing environmental goals.
5 key metrics to our 5 Year Plan
Decarbonisation is at the heart of Tritech’s five-year strategy. Acknowledging the vital role it plays in tackling climate change, Tritech sets a strong example across all sectors.
Two flagship projects in Dublin 2 highlight this commitment. The first, a Grade A, 70,000 sq/ft, seven-storey office building, is designed for LEED Platinum certification, BER A3 energy efficiency, WiredScore Platinum connectivity, WELL-enabled features, and NZEB compliance.
The second, a Grade A, 210,000 sq/ft, eight-storey office building, achieves similar benchmarks, including Carbon Zero operations and IoT smart building technology.
At Trinity College Dublin’s Hamilton Building, Tritech implemented energy-efficient solutions and diverted over 27 tonnes of waste from landfill, significantly reducing its environmental impact. Ireland faces a €160 billion investment challenge to meet national and EU climate goals, including a 51% emissions reduction by 2030 under the Climate Action Plan and Bill.
Aligning with these ambitions, Tritech integrates advanced sustainable technologies across energy, data centres, pharmaceutical campuses and commercial developments. By embedding decarbonisation into our operations, Tritech actively supports the European Green Deal’s net-zero emissions target for 2050, ensuring a lasting impact on commercial real estate sustainability.
The proof to back up your sustainability claims
Complying with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and achieving certifications such as LEED, WiredScore, and BREEAM in M&E projects offers substantial financial benefits. These standards require a strong commitment to energy efficiency, and responsible resource management, driving cost savings and supporting long-term profitability.
LEED-compliant buildings often benefit from reduced operational costs due to optimised energy and water usage, resulting in lower utility expenses. Additionally, efficient systems can extend the lifecycle of equipment, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
CSRD compliance provides a framework for transparent sustainability reporting, fostering investor confidence and attracting funding from environmentally conscious stakeholders. It can also open access to green financing opportunities and grants designed to support sustainable developments.
Moreover, compliance with these standards can boost asset value, increase marketability, and appeal to tenants or buyers prioritising sustainability. Ultimately, CSRD and LEED compliance ensure a competitive edge while delivering measurable financial returns.
Education is key.
At Tritech, we believe that fostering a greener commute not only reduces emissions but also cultivates a culture of environmental responsibility throughout the business.
As part of our continuous improvement initiatives, we challenge our team to “Do More” by embracing sustainable commuting options.
Programmes like the Cycle to Work scheme incentivise employees to make eco-friendly choices, contributing to long-term reductions in our carbon footprint.
Tritech has also expanded its fleet with the addition of Electric Vehicles (EVs), actively reducing harmful air pollution and eliminating exhaust emissions.
