Lowflo expansion plans mark a major milestone for one of Ireland’s specialist water-management companies. The Irish-owned firm has opened a new headquarters in Dublin and intends to grow its workforce from 54 employees to 200 by 2030.
Announced on 17 September 2026, the investment coincides with Lowflo’s 20th anniversary and reflects growing demand for leak detection, pressure management and technology-led water conservation services.
Lowflo expansion creates a platform for growth
Lowflo’s new headquarters at Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11, is expected to support the company’s next phase of development in Ireland and international markets. The planned recruitment drive will create 150 additional roles by 2030.
New positions are expected across several areas, including:
- Specialist water services
- Engineering and technology
- Operations
- Business support
The Dublin base will allow Lowflo to increase operational capacity, expand its services and showcase Irish expertise in sustainable water management. The official opening was attended by Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Trade Peter Burke TD, Lowflo CEO Charles Dwyer and Enterprise Ireland Executive Director Mark Christal.
Water conservation technology at the heart of expansion
Established in 2006, Lowflo provides services designed to help utilities, local authorities and businesses reduce water loss and improve the efficiency of critical infrastructure. Its customers include organisations in healthcare, pharmaceutical manufacturing, commercial development and data-centre operations.
The company uses a combination of satellite-supported leak detection, pressure management, digital monitoring and data-led analysis. These tools help identify hidden leaks, reduce unnecessary consumption and limit the energy and carbon emissions linked to water treatment and distribution.
Lowflo’s expansion comes as water utilities and businesses face continued pressure to improve network resilience and manage finite resources more efficiently. The company says investment in its people, technology and specialist knowledge will help it respond to that demand.

What the Lowflo expansion means for Ireland
The planned recruitment programme is expected to strengthen employment in engineering, technology and specialist water services. It may also support the development of exportable Irish expertise in leak detection and network monitoring.
With water efficiency becoming increasingly important for public infrastructure, industry and commercial organisations, Lowflo’s growth highlights the role of private-sector innovation in supporting more resilient water networks.
Conclusion
The Lowflo expansion represents a significant step for the Dublin-based company as it begins its third decade in business. Its new headquarters, 150 planned jobs and focus on sustainable water technology demonstrate how an Irish-owned firm can combine employment growth with practical environmental solutions.
