Euro Gas Embarks on New Development Phase

As Euro Gas approaches its ruby (40th) anniversary, it’s appropriate that it is undergoing yet another strategic development phase. The injection of new blood and fresh ideas has been the hallmark of Euro Gas down through the years and this year is no exception. After almost 25 years of unstinting service to Euro Gas, Martin Garvey, former Managing Director and majority shareholder, has decided to step away from the business to enjoy the finer things in life, with Denis O’Keeffe, James Porter and Kieran Cowman acquiring the business.

As with all such developments at Euro Gas, this has been a carefully-planned process to ensure a gradual and seamless transfer of ownership while, at the same time, ensuring total continuity of service and project delivery. Indeed, Denis and Kieran have almost 40 years’ service between them with Euro Gas while James represents the injection of “newer blood”, being with the company five years.

The same applies to the main staff complement. Longevity of service is very common at all levels, and across various roles. Meanwhile, new members have also come on board to help deal with the ever-expanding order book and growing portfolio as new product categories and product types come on stream.

That said, Euro Gas is not merely a product distributor but a full service provider of design-led, integrated heating and hot water system solutions for commercial applications, covering everything from offices and hotels through to leisure centres, gyms, hospitals, schools, etc. Both new-build and retrofit are fully catered for, with NZEB compliance and all that this entails the primary objective.

Peter O’Brien Appointed Sales Director

In keeping with the injection of new blood and fresh thinking, Peter O’Brien has just joined the company as Sales Director. A qualified building services engineer, Peter is widely known and respected throughout the building services engineering sector, having held key senior roles with some of the industry’s market leaders.

His experience encompasses all technology types and takes in commercial boilers through to air handling units, CHP units and commercial heat pumps. He will work closely with consulting engineers in his new role to help them devise renewable solutions that are the most appropriate for the particular project concerned.
