Our standards
Meeting Australian Standards is our starting point not our destination. We know every detail about every tanker because we’ve created it. We take nothing for granted and continuously look for opportunities to make our machines safer, more efficient and competitive.
From design inception to after sales servicing, we’ll put you on the road to success and help keep you there. We are energised, passionate and excited about our work. We go above and beyond to create something truly great.
ATE QUALITY SYSTEM
How can you be sure that you are getting the quality you pay for? At ATE we stake our reputation on it. We invest enormous energy in pushing ourselves towards higher quality standards and compliance.
AUSTRALIAN STANDARDS
We stringently comply with all relevant Australian standards. And because we’re Australian Made under one roof we’re able to verify every compliance detail in person at each stage of construction.
STAGE GATE TESTING
ATE actively investigate all process or product non-conformities then implement preventative measures to ensure they do not become safety hazards or performance defects. We also perform rigorous safety, durability and functionality testing on all tanker systems.
WELDING STANDARDS
ATE conforms to Australian welding standards AS1665 (aluminum) and AS1554 (steel). Each tanker is accompanied with verifiable proof of individual welder certification. This is the only way to be sure your tanker meets compliance with Australian Standard AS2809.
When you’re ready to talk, we’re ready to listen. Ready to try harder, think more creatively and work smarter to create exactly what your business needs.
