The History of Sadrab Sanat Company
On 17 June 2003, two friends—fresh graduates of Iran University of Science and Technology—founded Sadrab Sanat. They brought experience in both local water- and wastewater-treatment projects and international infrastructure assignments, and launched the firm at Grade 5 in Iran’s EPC-contractor ranking system.
Early Growth2003 – 2012
Sadrab Sanat concentrated on small- and medium-scale water and wastewater treatment plants and distribution networks across Iran, steadily progressing from Grade 5 to Grade 3 EPC status.
2003 – 2012

In 2012 the company diverged into the oil-and-gas sector, winning its first energy project—the Lavan Refinery Process Improvement and Capacity Optimization Plan. Successful delivery elevated Sadrab Sanat from Grade 3 to Grade 2 EPC status by 2016.
