We are Assentech Sales Limited, and we supply equipment, services and technical support in tank storage and process safety. Our services also include a rapid response unit for immediate support across the UK.
Prevention of harmful emissions is our core aim: to reduce the number of unnecessary vapours impacting the health of workers and surrounding neighbourhoods, whilst also stopping the waste of precious revenue.
INDUSTRIES
We love that our work spans across a diverse amount of industries.

Here you can find out more about how we can support and work with each individual industry.
