30 years of partnership between CARBOGAS S.A. Bolivia and ASCO KOHLENSÄURE AG

CARBOGAS S.A. in Bolivia is one of ASCO KOHLENSÄURE AG’s valued long-standing customers. CARBOGAS S.A. operates five CO₂ production plants in four major cities, making it the largest producer of carbon dioxide in Bolivia. ASCO has just delivered two brand-new ISO tank containers for the local transport of liquid CO2 and nitrogen.

CARBOGAS S.A. is the market leader in the production, marketing and distribution of carbon dioxide, accounting for 70% of the total volume. Thanks to cost-effective transport arrangements, CARBOGAS lorries cover distances of up to 700 km, whereas distances in European CO2 logistics are kept considerably shorter.

Dino Muckled, Managing Director, explains: “CARBOGAS S.A. aims to be at the forefront of CO2 production technology. We have always sought to work with the most qualified and experienced suppliers. Those who provide the guarantees, quality and safety we require for the operation of our plants. For these are the prerequisites for the benefit and satisfaction of our key customers, whilst simultaneously guaranteeing them a product of impeccable quality and delivered on time. In this regard, CARBOGAS S.A. relies entirely on the technologies of ASCO, a company 100% dedicated to the carbon dioxide sector".

“ASCO is very grateful for this long-standing business relationship and the valuable collaboration with CARBOGAS S.A.,” said Marco Pellegrino, Managing Director of ASCO KOHLENSÄURE AG. This successful collaboration dates back to 1991, when ASCO supplied the first CO₂ production plant to CARBOGAS S.A. The second plant was commissioned in 2014. Further CO2 equipment followed, such as several complete CO2 cylinder filling plants, dry ice production machines, a considerable number of stationary CO2 storage tanks in various capacities, a 20-tonne semi-trailer and various CO2 testing and inspection devices.
