At Weltec, we believe that safety innovation comes from individuals and teams and we continuously and actively encourage all our staff members to provide their input and point of view for increased safety performance.

Clear, effective and continuous communication with all our employees of our safety objectives and the desired work practices that will safeguard their health and wellbeing is every bit as important as the policies, procedures and safety management system that underpins world class safety performance.
Covid-19

Our guarantee of the highest quality standards
Quality Assurance
At Weltec our quality management system is our guarantee of the highest quality standards across all disciplines and all projects. Underpinned by our Core Values of Preparation, Exceeding Expectations and Continual Improvement our people strive to ensure our clients always receive the highest quality services and workmanship.
Our system is independently certified by NSAI to ISO9001:20015 standards. This means we have independently-verified quality system in place across all our projects, from the quality plan, test and inspection matrix, installation checks, materials receipt verification, materials and work traceability, red lines, walkdowns, testing, commissioning to final handover.
Digital QA
At Weltec we have embraced the advantages of the digital age, integrating internet and mobile technology into our construction quality control plans. As all projects move from paper drawings and documentation to digital and internet technology, quality assurance and quality control have become more effective and better at mitigating risks than ever before.
We have made major investments in digital construction processes including BIM, Contract Management software system and test pack generation software for all our projects. Along with improving overall project efficiency and quality this also provides greater visibility and traceability for clients throughout the entire construction build process.

At Weltec we recognize the responsibility placed upon all of us to protect and enhance the environment for future generations. As an Engineering and Construction company we have an important role to play to help ensure the long-term sustainability of the construction industry.
We are committed to taking account of all the possible environmental implications of our project work and to ensure that potential adverse environmental impacts are comprehensively risk assessed, mitigation steps taken and opportunities for delivering environmental improvements are maximised.
We recognise the value inherent in the design and construction of sustainable engineering projects and where possible support the integration of sustainability into the building and engineering design process.
We have considerable experience in delivering BREEAM and LEED accredited buildings.
We are accredited to internationally recognised ISO 14001 Environment Management System (EMS) a systematic framework to manage the immediate and long term environmental impacts of an organisation’s products, services and processes.
We firmly believe that our environmental and sustainability goals are key to ensuring, that as a company, we promote a continuous cycle of improvement, aimed at developing work practices and options that are less wasteful, more sustainable and more environmentally friendly.
