Celebrating World Standards Day with Suretank: Engineering for a Sustainable Future
14/10/2025
Every year on World Standards Day, we celebrate the critical role that international standards play in driving innovation, ensuring quality, and fostering global collaboration. For Suretank, standards are more than just compliance; they’re a foundation for sustainable engineering and responsible growth.
As a global leader in modular solutions and engineered products, Suretank aligns its operations with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Here’s how we’re contributing to a better future through innovation, collaboration, and community engagement.
SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals
At Suretank, we believe that collaboration is key to achieving sustainability. We actively partner with like-minded businesses, suppliers, and clients who share our vision of a greener future. Whether it’s co-developing modular solutions for data centres or working with offshore energy providers, our partnerships are built on trust, innovation, and shared environmental goals.
SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
Water is a precious resource, and Suretank is committed to using it wisely. Our facilities are designed to minimize water usage through efficient systems and processes. We also harvest and recycle rainwater, reducing our reliance on mains supply and contributing to water conservation efforts.
SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy
Suretank is proud to say that 60% of our energy comes from renewable sources. We’re currently implementing solar panels across our rooftops, further reducing our carbon footprint and enhancing our energy independence. Clean energy isn’t just a goal it’s a reality we’re building into our infrastructure.
SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure
Innovation is at the heart of everything we do. In 2025, Suretank was honoured with the “Export Innovation of the Year” award from the Irish Exporters Association for our Off-Site Manufactured Modular Solutions (OSM). This recognition reflects our commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering smarter, more sustainable infrastructure solutions.
SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities
Suretank fosters an inclusive and equal-opportunity workplace. We believe that diversity drives innovation, and we’re proud to support a culture where every team member can thrive, contribute, and grow.
SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
Our headquarters in Dunleer is more than just a place of business it’s part of our vibrant community. During Climate Action Week, Suretank engages with local residents to share knowledge and promote environmental awareness. From educational talks to collaborative clean-up efforts, we’re committed to building a more sustainable Dunleer.
SDG 13: Climate Action
Climate action is embedded in our R&D strategy. Across the Marine, Energy, Industry, and Infrastructure sectors, our teams are constantly innovating to develop low-impact, high-efficiency solutions. Whether it’s reducing emissions or designing products with circularity in mind, we’re engineering for a sustainable future.
