Designer Group, one of Ireland’s leading mechanical and electrical engineering companies, has expanded its Modular Manufacturing capability with the opening of a new €10 million facility in Kells, Co. Meath. The large investment in the 4,000sqm workshop demonstrates the company’s continued commitment to innovation, efficiency, and client value. The new facility is expected to employ up to 75 people over the next five years in a range of positions, including in engineering, fabrication and logistics.

Having delivered modular and off-site solutions for several years, this larger, purpose-built workshop enables Designer Group to scale operations, enhance production capacity and deliver even greater value for its clients in the Data Centre, Energy, and pharmaceutical sectors. Components built at the Meath plant will be transported to Designer Group client sites across Ireland, the UK and Europe.

Mr Paul Nicholls, Group Managing Director, Designer Group said: “As our industry continues to evolve, we are seeing a fundamental shift in how complex projects are executed – with speed, certainty, and sustainability at the forefront. Our new facility enables us to deliver high-quality, prefabricated modules off-site, driving greater efficiency, cost certainty, and reduced risk for our clients, while ensuring excellence in delivery across all sectors.

Beyond its operational impact, this investment also strengthens our local footprint, supporting long-term employment in Co. Meath with the creation of 75 skilled, management and apprenticeship roles over the coming years.”
