Aquatic Control Engineering

Aquatic Control Engineering Ltd (ACE), formed in September 1995, was established to provide the latest Dutch Water Flow Control Innovations into the UK and Irish marketplace. These products were manufactured in the Netherlands, but are now made in house under the brand AQUIKO. This flow control equipment is made from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), a plastic which is less expensive, more lightweight and robust than common materials such as cast iron and steel. Today this material concept is a proven and widely adopted concept in water flow control devices yet the reputation of ACE as the market innovator has remained. Investing heavily into research, design and development ACE providing a holistic solution to water flow control projects throughout the UK and have become market leaders in this area. In addition ACE now represent a large product range including Fish Flow Innovations, Pentair Nijhuis, Habbig, WaStop Check Valves and ACE's own Slide Flood Barriers as master distributors for the UK/Ireland. For 2 decades business has been increasing and our team has grown to include an established range of services from design, project management, early contractor involvement, installation, commissioning and much much more. Our large and loyal customer base rely on ACE for repeated high standards of installation on time and to schedule. But We Haven't Stopped There! In the year 2000 the increasing effect of the EU Water Framework Directive meant that our structures needed to carefully consider the impact on the migration of Eels, Elvers and coarse fish species including Salmonids. Providing the two elements as a package has allowed ACE to provide more cost effective solutions to its customers and to help with the balance of ecological and environmental benefit over risk from flooding and commercial need. ACE are proud to now represent FishFlow Innovations in Holland in addition to our UK designed and manufactured fish and elver pass range.
