Irrigation Engineers Ltd is a team of multi-disciplinary engineering professionals, led by John Roy, who have worked throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

We are committed to sustainable and ecologically beneficial design in everything that we do, which is the reason for establishing our own in-house environmental engineering department.

Not only does this support our irrigation projects, allowing us to utilise non-traditional sources of water in our schemes, but it enables us to provide solutions for the following applications:

Municipal and industrial effluent treatment
Surface water runoff attenuation and treatment (flood mitigation)
Agricultural runoff and drainage management
Remote environmental monitoring

We approach every project with a scientific and pragmatic methodology resulting in a robust and ratified design solution. Due to the rich and varied project experience of our team, we are able to bring collaborative problem solving and innovation to every project regardless of size or location. We believe that no two projects are ever the same, and that providing the optimal design solution involves:

Understanding the parameters and limitations of the site.
Applying the optimal technology, selected according to the specific needs of the client.

Understanding the plant-soil-water relationship is key to our design capability, both in irrigation and environmental engineering projects. We advocate the use of constructed wetlands wherever possible, utilising natural phytoremediation processes to purify water and improve the environment.

Our Mission

As a professional and independent consulting group, we provide an unbiased design service that makes optimal use of natural infrastructure and resources to help our client maximise on their investment, protect the environment and stay compliant. It is our goal to exceed our clients’ expectations and to never compromise on quality.

Our Values

We believe in building strong relationships and partnerships based on trust and integrity through our commitment to service and quality. We design environmental systems that not only stand the test of time but the bottom line. We strive to maintain relevance, always learning and moving forward to more sustainable and innovative environmental practices.

Design

Intelligent environmental design

We understand that intelligent environmental design goes beyond process and hydraulic calculations. It requires an in-depth understanding of the environmental permit / trade effluent consent process, the clients’ needs, goals and limitations and the specific site environment.

Consult

The importance of planning

We believe every project, regardless of size, benefits from pre-planning and upfront site analysis. At this stage we consult with the project owner and design team to review project requirements, water / effluent treatment options, environmental constraints and budgetary milestones.

Manage

Total project management

We have considerable experience of project managing the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of water management infrastructure and effluent treatment plant. We will help you complete your project in an organised and methodical manner regardless of its size or location.

Meet The Team

John Roy

Throughout my career I have had the opportunity to design, build and project manage irrigation systems of widely varying scale and complexity, throughout Africa, the Middle East, Indian Ocean Islands, India, Europe and the UK.

Jacqueline Roy

I have always been a person who enjoys being outdoors and at one with nature. So it wasn’t surprising that in my first job I became a horticulturist growing aquatic plants. It was my ‘dream job’.

Ian Vickers Dalton

Horticulture is essential to modern life: whether for food or for the simple pleasure provided by a flower. The challenges facing our growing global population are many, and being able to grow more with fewer resources is fundamental.

George Rose

Growing up in Suffolk, I was a proud member of the Young Ornithologists Club from the age of 8 (the junior branch of the RSPB). Even back then I was very aware of the importance of conservation and the delicate balance between man and nature.
