Description

Wtech Fire Group, an Irish fire-protection and safety-services company, opened its new €2.5 million headquarters and FAST Centre of Excellence in Mullingar on 27 April 2026. The expansion will create approximately 100 jobs at the site.

The 10,000-square-foot facility houses group functions and Wtech’s Fire and Security Technology division. It supports training, technology development and coordination across the group’s European operations.

The opening accompanied Wtech’s acquisition of Absolute Fire & Security in Ireland and Feuerfuchs Brandschutz in Germany, while its acquisition of Spain-based PACISA was awaiting completion.
