The history of AFATEK is based on these values which continue to guide our strategic development for tomorrow:
The company has constantly progressed since its creation in 1999 and has an ambition of controlled growth for the coming years.
The turnover of Afatek is evenly distributed between its key activities of maintenance and the installation of new material. Since 2011 energy management, under the brand VIGIEBOX, represents an increasingly important part of turnover and is in constant progression.
Listening to and understanding our customers and their needs is a key focus at AFATEK. Our teams develop solutions to meet our customer’s expectations as closely as possible. This mindset, which motivates all AFATEK staff, aims to continuously bring better products and services to our customers, enabling them to benefit from competitive advantages and favouring the development of their companies.
INNOVATION FOR YOUR SATISFACTION
We are committed to being an innovative, reactive and reliable partner and to offering reliable and secure freezer and refrigeration solutions. Our experience, our know-how and our willingness to innovate are undeniable advantages for our continued growth. To maintain this value, we continue to invest by increasing our research and development potential to support product innovation.
UPHOLD OUR COMMITMENTS
Because the success of a project always depends on the quality of its team, we provide an ambitious continuous training programme which is constantly updated for our staff in order to maintain a high level of technical knowledge and professionalism and respect the set time limits.
The evolution of market needs often leads to implementing multi-technique solutions. Afatek has therefore developed partnerships with our customers (as well as with suppliers and companies with complementary activities), in order to develop and offer global, sophisticated and innovative solutions.
In our company we act in an ethical and socially responsible manner and we also implement actions in order to contribute to the improvement of our environment.
Our number one priority: Our customers
Our organisation and geographical location (close to Orly airport and motorway network) have been considered with only one thing in mind: our customers. Our internal organisation is centred around two main areas of action: the Technical department and the Installation team. Support functions (admin and sales) assist these two hubs under the management of the CEO.
Thanks to this structure, we can provide our customers (local, national and international) with particularly reactive research, technical and maintenance services.
Thinking ahead and responding to your needs
Our industrial organisation (remote management system, GPS equipped vehicle fleet, stocks…) allows us to respond to our customers’ demands, and to think ahead.
This is our way of showing our customers our continued investment in the level of service we offer.
The AFATEK head office is based in the south of the Paris region in a recent building adapted to our activity.
A network of two IT systems (30 installed PCs) allows for a precise management of the services delivered to our clients.
A telephone helpline is provided by our technicians 24 hours a day, in order to respond to the specific needs of on call technicians in the field.
WINSAV software
WINSAV is the tool used for the management of all after-sales service interventions and the maintenance of equipment needing periodical maintenance (refrigeration equipment and air conditioning). This tool allows us to follow the use of spare parts and guarantee our customer’s system in real time.
PCWIN software
PC WIN is software which allows the surveillance of equipment deployed for a customer from a central workstation. At our supervision platform we can remotely control certain parameters of the functions of installed equipment, such as temperature, electricity consumption and detect all dysfunctions.
Our research office has a full professional software suite at their disposition to design your projects.

The fitters have TRAFFIC (or VIVARO) vehicles equipped for the fitting of refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
All our vehicles are equipped with GPS navigation to optimise their journeys. The vehicles of our fitters and repairmen and women are also equipped with a geolocation module which allows us to locate them in real time in order to intervene quickly at our customers’ sites.
At AFATEK we believe that the safety of personnel and installations comes from the continuous training of our teams concerning new equipment, as well as regular updates about electronics and different professional risks.
