asecos - the innovation leader
How to recognize an innovation leader? From their vast technological know-how, extensive market knowledge and many business partners - but above all from a perpetual need to develop something new.
In 1994 we developed the first safety storage cabinet with 90 minute fire resistance. This aim was ambitious: To manufacture safety storage cabinets, which offer the same safety level for the storage of hazardous materials, as normal storage rooms.
The development of the type 90 technology was a revolution in our sector - and had a lasting impact on our business strategy. It was the beginning of our history as a trend-setter for safety-related products. asecos was setting new standards with many of its evolving technologies - and these standards still apply.
The passion to create innovative solutions is what drives us forward. This has led to the creation of a broad product portfolio - with customer specified solutions for nearly every application. Solutions, which have caused sensations when introduced worldwide!

Our expertise as a developer and manufacturer of safety products reflects not only in our first-class portfolio but also in our range of services.
