Emtec: A trusted sustainability provider for over 40 years

For over 40 years, Emtec has been a trusted provider of specialized mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) engineering services, delivering high-quality, technically driven solutions to a diverse clientele. Today, Emtec’s expertise and focus have earned it a leadership position not just in engineering but also in sustainability, making it a respected name in the region.

“OUR ROLE IN THE VALUE CHAIN OF BUILDING DEVELOPMENT PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE IN SUPPORTING MORE SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES.”

Founded with a vision to create healthy and comfortable indoor environments, Emtec has consistently emphasized efficient energy generation and distribution. Over the years, the company has broadened its service offerings to include fire protection, fire alarm systems, and building commissioning. This comprehensive suite of services enables Emtec to deliver end-to-end solutions that meet the varied needs of its clients. Leading the way at Emtec are President and CEO Andrew R. Solano, P.E., and managing part-ners Andrew J. Solano, and Andrew P. Saggese, P.E., whose combined expertise and industry connections have significantly bolstered the com-pany’s reputation. Notably, Andrew J. Solano’s role as a board member of the U.S. Green Building Council further underscores Emtec’s commit-ment to sustainability and excellence in engineering.

Emtec’s dedication to sustainability is exemplified by projects like the Shoregate Apartments in Bayshore, which achieved Silver Certification under the ICC 700-2020 National Green Building Standard. This certi-fication is a testament to the compa-ny’s ability to integrate environmen-tally responsible practices into its projects. The U.S. Green Building Council’s mission to revolutionize the design, construction, and operation of build-ings and communities aligns per-fectly with Emtec’s goals. The Green Building Standard, which promotes efficiency, resource conservation, and enhanced occupant well-being, serves as a guiding framework for Emtec’s projects.

“Our role in the value chain of building development plays a critical role in supporting more sustainable communities,” said Andrew J. Solano

Among Emtec’s notable achieve-ments is the Suffolk County Police Department’s Fourth Precinct in Hauppauge, recognized as the first municipal facility on Long Island to receive a Silver Standard from the U.S. Green Building Council’s Lead-ership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). In 2024, Emtec’s experience was further recognized when Long Island Business News’ Real Estate Archi-tecture and Engineering Awards honored the company’s work. The Residences at Glen Harbor was celebrated as the Top Condo Project, while North Suffolk Cardiology was awarded the Top Healthcare Project.

With a steadfast commitment to technical excellence and sustainable design, Emtec continues to play a vital role in Long Island’s economic growth and community development. The company remains dedicated to delivering innovative, efficient engineering solutions across a wide range of industries and clients.
