Asotep history

Location Asotep in Genk

Pascuale Petosa started a one-man business in 1972 while focusing on welding and repairing pipes and large structural works.
After a few years, the demand for piping professional knowledge increased and Pascuale started to employ additional staff. In 1988, the company grew to become Asotep, a public limited company, and it moved to Houthalen. The many years of experience and know-how were mainly deployed in the chemical and petrochemical sectors as from this point. Ten years later, the building in Houthalen became too small and Asotep moved to the current company building in Genk.

Since 2011, Sergio Petosa, Pascuale’s son, is the director of the company. The family business has now grown to become a reliable and respected company with 45 employees and 90 contractors.

In 1995, the subsidiary Gilmaso NV was established with identical services in the region of Antwerp that services, for example, the port companies.
