About Us

Our Company

Association of Three Co.,Ltd. is a manufacturer of equipment for the “environmental industries” (the Three in the company name are earth, air and water, not people!).

We started this company in 1993 and has built it into a very successful organization supplying equipment for water and wastewater treatment throughout Asia and beyond. We have an excellent staff and workforce, many of whom have been with the company for more than 20 years, and we make equipment which is technically superior, developed by the expert knowledge of our staff. We have a flexible and very capable manufacturing team, so we can make each unit as you need it, to match your exact requirements.

From 2004 we have expanded our field of activity into the “earth” part of Association – Solid Waste. This will also benefit our third environmental discipline, “air”.

We design and fabricate equipment to suit your particular requirements. Our main products are described here, but we do make other items to order. We are flexible and innovative, seeking to continuously develop our capabilities. If there is a product which you would like us to make for you, please ask and we will give your requirements detailed consideration.

Even though our equipment is very high quality, you will find it is not expensive.

We make a variety of equipment for water, wastewater and solid waste applications. This is a short summary of the items more fully described in “Products” elsewhere on the website.
