Who We Are
RCR is an integrated group of companies building the future of New Zealand’s infrastructure, energy, and technology. With over 125 years of heritage—and proudly back in Kiwi ownership since 2019—we combine trusted engineering with forward-looking innovation to deliver solutions that are reliable, resilient, and sustainable.
Our Key Pillars
Together, these three pillars form a group committed to powering
New Zealand’s next generation of growth.
Heritage Infrastructure
RCR Infrastructure provides nationwide engineering, electrical, and mechanical services. We support everything from large scale commercial installations to smart energy upgrades such as EV charging and solar lighting.
Power Resilience
DataGuard, established in 1997, safeguards mission critical operations with advanced power protection solutions. As New Zealand’s specialist in UPS systems, batteries, and transfer switches, DataGuard partners with global leaders like SOCOMEC to ensure businesses run with uninterrupted confidence.
Clean Energy
RCR Renewable drives the transition to a low-carbon future by developing solar farms, battery storage, and EV infrastructure. Working alongside iwi, councils, and international investors, we deliver renewable energy projects that reduce emissions and create long-term community and economic value.
