ATEQ is a global company with a 48-year history, and has established itself as a world leader in leak test technologies and industrial quality control equipment. With operations in 40 countries and a customer base of over 5000 worldwide, it serves a variety of industries. The company’s mission is to help its customers remain compliant with regulations and maintain product quality through its range of support services.

Company history

When ATEQ was founded in 1975, Jacques Mouchet had a vision to replace traditional production line leak detection methods such as water testing with computerised leak testers and leak detection equipment with the following attributes:

• Fully automated.

• Calibrated and traceable to ISO 17025.

• Meets international quality standards (ISO 17025 Certificate).

• Fast.

• Offers dry and clean air testing.

One of ATEQ’s strengths is its exceptional customer service. The company understands the importance of providing local after-sales support to its customers. By doing so, it ensures that customers can quickly contact someone who speaks their language and understands their needs, resulting in faster resolution times and improving the overall customer experience. By offering reliable and accessible support, ATEQ strengthens customer loyalty and satisfaction.

ATEQ’s commitment to innovation has also been a key factor in its success. The company recognises the importance of staying at the cutting edge and adapting to emerging technologies. Since 1993, ATEQ has registered numerous patents, trademarks and designs, demonstrating its dedication to staying current with industry trends, and offering innovative solutions to its customers.

As the automotive industry moves towards more sustainable technologies, ATEQ is also adapting its products and services to meet the needs of this changing market. Its R&D; department is challenging itself to accompany this transformation, and this has led to the registration of 64 patents, 52 trademarks and 36 designs since 1993. This demonstrates ATEQ’s commitment to staying at the cutting edge and offering the most advanced technologies to its customers.

ATEQ also recognises the importance of sustainability and takes steps to minimise its impact on the environment. The company implements sustainable practices in its manufacturing processes, uses environmentally friendly materials, and invests in renewable energy sources. As a global company, ATEQ understands its responsibility to the environment, and is actively working to reduce its carbon footprint.

Beyond simply selling products, ATEQ takes responsibility for helping its customers comply with regulations. This is especially important in industries where leaks can have catastrophic consequences, such as in the oil and gas industry or in medical devices. Its range of support services, from initial consulting to after-sales support, ensures that its customers can maintain product quality and regulatory compliance.

ATEQ’s focus on product quality and local after-sales support has earned it the trust and confidence of its customers. With a mcommitment to innovation and sustainability, it is well positioned to continue its success while staying true to its core values.

In terms of sustainability efforts, ATEQ is implementing several initiatives to reduce its environmental impact. For example, it is working to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions through the use of renewable energy and the implementation of sustainable practices in its manufacturing processes.

The company is also exploring the use of eco-friendly materials in its products to further minimise their impact on the environment.

ATEQ’s success has been driven by its commitment to quality, innovation and customer service. As it expands into new markets and adapts to emerging technologies, it is well positioned to continue this success, while remaining true to its commitment to sustainability.

ATEQ’s vision for the future is to continue to be a global leader in leak testing technologies and industrial quality control equipment. The company aims to expand its presence in new markets and strengthen its position in countries where it is already present. ATEQ also invests in research and development to remain at the forefront of technological advances and offer its customers innovative and reliable solutions.
