A & S THAI WORKS CO., LTD

ADDING VALUE TO WASTE

The rendering and fishmeal industries can contribute to the world positively by providing a sustainable and renewable source of energy.  Rendering plants process animal by-products into biodiesel,  which is a clean-burning fuel that can be used to power vehicles and machinery.

Additionally, rendering plants can produce a variety of other products, such as pet food, fertilizer, and animal feed, which can help to reduce waste and provide a valuable resource for farmers and pet owners.

COMPANY HISTORY

A & S Thai Works was established in Bangkok in 1984 as a subsidiary of Stord Bartz, a leading Norwegian supplier of fish meal plants. We supplied and installed the first fish meal plant in 1986. Until 1998 our products were marketed under the name Atlas Stord. In 1998, the Aker Group, the owner of the company, decided to sell out the different parts of their fish meal business. The Asian part was bought by Mr. Sverre Golten who had been running the business in Bangkok from the outset. He is still the owner and managing director of the company

Already from the start in 1984, there has been constant product development to improve the already very good technology inherited from the mother company in Norway.  Much emphasis has been put on utilizing the advantages of manufacturing in Thailand.

Thailand is a country with low production costs. Still, Thai workers make very high-quality products, fully competitive with products manufactured in Europe. This is one of the reasons why so many industries have established production units in the country. Examples are the car industry, equipment for oil and gas exploration and production, electronics industry and so on.

PROCESS EXPERT WITH PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE

A & S Thai Works have been manufacturing, installing, running and fine-tuning rendering and fishmeal plants for over 30 years using only our own experience team. This gave us the ability to grow and became experts on designing, fabricating and fine-tuning the plants to be as efficient and reliable as possible. Our team has the practical experience by being at customer’s site and understanding how each country has its differences in climate, raw material, infrastructure and culture that has an effect on a particular plant

We mostly use larger and/or thicker dimensions than our competitors to ensure that our plants have a long, profitable production life.
For components that we don’t manufacture in-house, like bearings, gear boxes and valves, we use well known, international brands like SKF, SEW and Kitz. This ensures a long product life, easy maintenance and reliable access to spare parts, either from ASTW or directly from the original suppliers.

VISION

The worlds food industry still need fishmeal and rendering plants to process the waste and by-products coming from this industry.

The old school of plant managers and operators are gradually retiring and a new generation are coming up and are having a hard time grabbing old and new technology and the abundance of regulations.

There is an increasing need for by-products plants to be ever more complete in delivery, easy to install, reliable and easy to operate and maintain, and at the same time give good quality output with low energy consumption. The balance between inhouse operators and inhouse and contracted maintenance craftsmen may change.

MISSION

ASTW’s job is firstly to provide complete, sturdy and reliable plants with all the nuts and bolts and installation included, and without compromise and hidden agendas, and full automation when possible.

To focus on completeness and what is honestly the best solution for the customers instead of hunting for the lowest price that involve compromises.

Secondly to train and upkeep a sufficient team of qualified personnel and offer full installation, after-sale service and maintenance when possible, sometimes by 12 months contracts.
