Fresh off the production line. This wastewater vacuum tanker breaks records in operational speed and efficiency, maximising throughput for the owner. Its ultra-fast, computer-controlled pump and valving system means this nimble little tanker can access the site with ease, complete the task, and move on to the next job in record time.

This tanker is designed with one philosophy in mind:

12/06/2025

When a regional council presented ATE with a detailed list of service vehicle requirements, ATE was able to offer the highest level of customised design.

This multi-purpose service unit, designed to handle diesel, water, and hydraulic fluids, truly embodies the concept of a "Swiss Army knife on wheels."

Every aspect of this vehicle, from the lighting layouts to the multi-fluid dispensing systems, was meticulously crafted to meet the council's specifications. At ATE, creating bespoke solutions is a daily endeavour, ensuring that each component and control is tailored to the unique needs of their customers.
For those operating in demanding environments with precise requirements, ATE Tankers doesn't just build tankers; they engineer comprehensive solutions that address every detail and challenge.

Before any ATE tanker rolls out, it goes through a series of detailed QA verifications. Because when your product matters, millimetres matter.
