Company Profile 3

Welcome

ADCO Contracting and Civil Engineering set up business in
early 2009 with a strong focus on clean room installation, fit-
out works and general contracting in the pharmaceutical
sector. Since then, we have become well established in the
pharmaceutical sector completing shutdowns, upgrades and
redevelopment works, and gained a reputation for quality
service and deliverability.

As well as an emphasis on pharmaceutical works, we also
undertake general contracting and commercial fit-out works,
and in the past, have provided project management services
for several clients. We are still a relatively young player in our
industry, but conduct ourselves as if we were a global leader.
Our clients value our dedication to innovation, safety,
sustainability and our responsiveness and devotion to
customer service.

Over the coming years, we will focus strongly on maintaining
our status as a quality specialist in the pharmaceutical sector,
whilst broadening and strengthening our client base. As well as
this, our goal is to innovate and develop in the construction
industry by branching into the food and medical sector.

10 Company Profile

With a wealth of knowledge of state-of-the-art manufacturing, distribution and
administration facilities, a considerable amount of our work is in the pharmaceutical
sector. We fulfil requirements such as upgrades, clean-room installations, extensions,
decontamination works, specialist floor finishes and firewall systems for some of the
top pharma companies in Ireland, such as MSD, Takeda and Amgen, to name but a
few.

For the likes of Analytic Partners, Knight Frank and Belfius Bank we have fit out,
renovated, refurbished and extended numerous offices to suit a broad variety of
requirements and purposes. Works we’ve undertaken include fitting meeting and
comms rooms, directors’ and open plan offices, shower rooms and kitchens and
changing the structures of buildings, as well as full M&E installation.

Industrial projects have included food facilities, car showrooms and motor learning
centres, including demolitions and extensions, office fit-outs, car-lifts,
weatherproofing, and successfully working around sensitive products at risk of
contamination.

A number of our projects require entirely new constructions, and we are proud to
have numerous types in our repertoire. From car show rooms and food
manufacturing facilities, to carefully removing gable and load-bearing walls in
Victorian red brick buildings and opening up modern offices, we have the expertise
to construct, extend or reconfigure your project, so you know it will be a sound build
and a sight to behold.
