ESI has a long history since its inception in 1919 and has continued to grow in Ireland and the UK.

Going to market as ‘More than Equipment suppliers ……. Solution providers’ We have built our offering on the dedication and experience of our people. Our expertise is our strongest asset and combined, our core Engineers at ESI have over 300 years of process application experience in valves/pumps/control/safety/aseptic and instrumentation.

We are not solely dependent on the manufacturers for support, as all our staff are factory trained to allow for a quick turnaround on quotes and a customer-focused rapid response. Therefore, all knowledge is retained in-house and sizing and selection of equipment are carried out by ESI. This allows us to build a long-term strategic view and to offer a one-stop process solution, building extensive lifelong relationships with our clients, with an Engineering ability to work alongside site engineers to ensure competitive technical solutions and experience to suggest and source alternatives.

Combining all the above with our comprehensive Service Division (product-trained engineers to specialise in repair, installation, and commissioning) we have, the since our inception over 100 years ago, extensive experience in delivering large projects effectively.
