Bringing Sustainable Development to Life
Welcome to AFEC International
Founded in 1986 by Michael Ahearne Snr, AFEC International stands as a testament to family values, commitment, and a dedication to excellence. Rooted in a family-led approach, we have grown to become a beacon of multidisciplinary expertise in the engineering and architectural landscape, especially unique in the Irish setting.
Our presence spans the globe, from our origins in the Republic of Ireland to our operations in the United Kingdom, Spain, Croatia, Italy, Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Vietnam. Serving a diverse clientele ranging from the pharmaceutical sector to government and private entities. Notably, our large-scale fire remediation projects for the Irish and Scottish Government have set benchmarks in quality and efficiency.
At AFEC, our core values of integrity, ethics, respect, and drive underscore every project we undertake. Innovation remains at our heart— we pride ourselves on fostering innovation, not imitation. This is evident in our adoption of cutting-edge technologies, utilizing artificial intelligence across design, drawing, and administrative tasks, ensuring that our solutions are both future-proof and efficient.
Sustainability is more than just a buzzword for us. It’s an inherent part of our design philosophy, ensuring that every project not only meets but exceeds contemporary green building standards.
Our team, a dynamic assembly of 80 professionals, specialise in architectural, fire engineering, mechanical, electrical, and civil engineering. Continuous learning is embedded in our culture. From in-house professional development to collaborations with universities, we ensure our team is always at the forefront of industry knowledge.
But beyond the brick and mortar, blueprints, and designs, it’s our relationships that truly define us. We’re committed to not just meeting but exceeding client expectations, forging bonds that last long after project completion.
In line with our ethos of giving back, AFEC International is an ardent supporter of environmental causes, contributing to beach cleaning initiatives and anti-plastics campaigns. Our commitment extends to the local communities we serve, supporting local boxing clubs and encouraging grassroots talent.
As we look to the horizon, our ambitions soar. Our plans to expand further internationally are driven by a simple yet powerful motto – “Just do it.” Join us on this journey, where innovation meets excellence, and dreams are transformed into tangible realities.
