Redefining Water
Since our founding over 14 years ago, Septech has grown to hold a prestigious position in today’s industry, becoming one of the most recognised specialised Water and related infrastructure companies in the Middle East.
The global recession has presented enormous challenges for our company, but it also presents opportunities. And those opportunities are taken up by a team of people who on a daily basis find themselves in situations where integrity, honesty and trustworthiness come into play. These qualities may be hard-to-measure, but are priceless when it comes to our clients having confidence in what we do and how we do it.
The management team has continued to work towards our vision to be the market leader in specialised Water and related infrastructure, partnering with globally recognised leading brands and holding a proven track record for projects executed.
Our innovative and flexible approach has enabled Septech to address the many challenged in both the UAE and regional market places. Our success continues to be based upon our growing reputation to be an “end to end solution provider” and at being “market leaders” in domestic and targeted regional markets. This alone has driven a number of significant opportunities towards Septech, and we hope in the years to come, the group will re-commence its transformational growth phase.
The establishment of these two offices has forced us to revisit our forward projections and overheads, to ensure that we have a clear business and commercial plan addressing new markets, new products and services, furthermore required cost reductions to ensure we can maximise our position in whatever scenario unfolds.
Environmental sustainability, at Septech particularly as it relates to Water, Wastewater environmental responsibility and climate change, is a complex topic that has captured the attention of business leaders in the Middle East and worldwide. The momentum around this issue at the very top levels of business and government is like nothing I have ever seen; nearly every leader I speak with is seeking ways to navigate the environmental sustainability agenda.
We take our responsibility to our shareholders very seriously. Our belief is that we maximise shareholder value by maintaining a long-term focus. rather than thinking about ways in which we can create short-lived economic gains each quarter, we focus on serving our clients and delivering the most innovative and competitive solutions, we believe that we are building a company that will create more value, not just for our clients but ultimately also for our shareholders as well.
Since inception, our focus has been on keeping our commitments in line with our core values: to our customers, who grant us their trust and have the right to demand that we give the best of ourselves on an ongoing basis; to our shareholders, who are our partners in projects, whose ambition, rigor and transparency we must guarantee; and to all the group’s employees.
CEO’S Message
The World Islands, Dubai
Redefining WaterSeptech Holdings LimitedSeptech Holdings Limited was formed in 1997 as the parent company to a number of operating entities that would serve as multiple infrastructure operating entities across the Middle East and other targeted emerging markets across the globe.
The establishment of this company introduced the founders to the marketplace of the Middle East through a number pre-existing transactions that pre-ceded in Asia and Australia by the founder and today’s CEO, David Heffernan. From its inception, Septech Holdings became the parent company and strategic board for its first operating entity Septech Emirates LLC. Over the years, the group has increased its investment profile and talent pool to include the establishment of Septech in Saudi Arabia, Oman and North Africa.
Along with its primary focus of providing a number of structured vehicles to assist the emerging Middle Eastern markets, Septech Holdings set up EMtech LLC as a primary management contracting firm. EMtech serves as a direct support entity to pre and post infrastructure solutions for all of Septech’s capabilities. In 2005, Septech Holdings started the first specialised infrastructure pipe company in the U.A.E. under the name, Al Dhafra Pipes Factory LLC, with a purpose built factory in Abu Dhabi.
After operating successfully for almost 13 years with an outstanding track record of completed projects, Septech Holdings partnered with the region’s largest and most prominent Investment Bank, Shuaa Capital. Attracted by Septech’s rapid growth and value creation across all business units, Shuaa Capital decided to take a strategic investment in Septech in 2008. The successful partnership has allowed Septech to vigorously explore opportunities in the Middle East and make strategic investments in countries that offer future growth potential like Saudi Arabia, Oman and Qatar.
The company has established its presence across the GCC to ensure that Septech’s foot print can be increased. A number of corporate initiatives were undertaken by the management team to investigate and establish our profile in neighbouring GCC countries, which has proved to be a challenging exercise. Septech Holdings shifted its attention from the UAE towards “developing” markets to include primarily Oman and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The groups model has changed somewhat, collectively the decision to adjust the business and corporate-level strategies from a standard “contractor” mindset towards a structured EPC/DBOOT specialists will reaffirm the companies capabilities and core competencies. Identifying a number of regionally suitable vehicles with the support of leading infrastructure and financial specialists will provide Septech the directional support to consider the acquisition of brownfield sites or the elementary establishment of greenfield sites, for the distribution of water and wastewater programs. Our successful track record to date has been attributed to by the quality of our outstanding people who have been drawn from a global pool of talent. We strive to excel and to maintain our position as a leading water and wastewater infrastructure company through a highly focused approach.
The future success of Septech Holdings is driven by the committed and combined vision of the founders of Septech and Shuaa Capital, allowing the group to further cement its position as the market leader in innovative water solutions.

Septech in the Middle East
ISO9001:2000
Supplying water of adequate quality and in sufficient quantities is one of the major challenges facing modern society across the globe and particularly in the Middle East. The region is currently experiencing a population and developmental boom, and at the same time many people still do not have a consistent access to water, due to a limitation in resources or an aspect of pollution created by domestic and industrial wastewater. The provision of fresh water, its treatment and management is one of the most difficult challenges faced and one of the most important to resolve.
Septech views the development of the water and wastewater industry as being shaped by a number of mega-trends: explosive population growth creating an exponential demand for water and water resources, emerging infrastructure developments requiring enormous quantities of water and wastewater and climate change is creating a number of variations to the hydrological regime in the region.
Septech is perfectly positioned, supported by its local experience and pool of international talent, to ensure that governments, developers, investors can deliver the infrastructure required to support the population growth and developments of the Middle East for decades to come.
Septech was established 14 years ago in the UAE through its parent investment vehicle, Septech Holdings Limited. The company was founded with the pursuit of addressing the growing concern to water scarcity, water management and a population growth that surpasses most other regions. Through the identification of strategic customers and corporate partnerships in order to facilitate long-term growth and value creation, Septech has experienced phenomenal growth and is today recognised as one of the Middle East’s leading water infrastructure specialists.
Operating throughout the Middle East region, Septech remains an innovative and results driven organisation, delivering complete turnkey solutions, from design through to complete-built and operation. With a centralised focus on water and its related infrastructure, Septech offers a portfolio of products and services that span across 6 major industries: water, wastewater, mobile water, precast Infrastructure, marinas and utilities management.
Working with a number of governments, public and privately owned industry leaders on medium to mega-sized projects such as Atlantis, The Palm, Festival Marina at Dubai Festival City, Saadiyat Island, Yas Island, The Ells Club Victory Heights and Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Septech is focused on continuing to grow its market share and establishing its proven success in neighbouring Middle Eastern countries.
With relationships spanning across the UAE and into the emerging markets of Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and North Africa, Septech has an in-depth understanding of the decisions and directions governments and ruling families are taking in the building of infrastructure required to support their countries growing populations.
