Geschiedenis

Gerrie Leemput witnessed, in 1989, that the piles of discarded refrigerators in the Netherlands kept growing. He felt that a solution was needed. After spending months in his garage designing and adjusting he found the end result: the patented ATN drill-head. The drill-head enabled easy draining of harmfull oil and gas coming from end-of-life refrigerators. With the invention of the drill-head, gas and oil would no longer come in contact with the environment. Therefore the drill-head facilitated a safe and healthy working climate for the employees that handled these harmfull substances.

Over the past couple of years ATN Engineering has refined the drill-head and now it is able to drain a domestic refrigerator within one minute (with an effciency of 99,5%). Furthermore, ATN Engineering created new logistical solutions, new machinery to drain industrial coolers and equipment for the recycling of televisions and tumble dryers. This has not gone unnoticed, because the demand has grown ever since. Nowadays ATN Engineering has installed more than 80 custom-made systems world-wide to solve the specific recycling problems of our customers.
