A short history / Blackburn, Lancashire

2001

Representational contemporary engineering drawing and measurement work
System planning begins with the operating requirement.

Fueltek Limited was incorporated on 7 February 2001. The purpose was practical from the beginning: make commercial fuel control clearer, more accountable and easier to operate.

From Blackburn, that idea grew through secure identification, controlled dispensing and dependable transaction records. The physical event at the pump became information an operator could understand and act upon.

As communications developed, Fueltek connected sites to browser-based reporting, multi-site oversight and tank intelligence. The system became broader, but the principle stayed the same: solve the real operational problem and support it for the long term.

The Fueltek
story.

Twenty-five years of practical fuel-management engineering.

Contemporary representational engineering drawing and measurement work
Engineering starts with the real requirement.
01 / The beginning

Built around a practical purpose.

Fueltek is incorporated in Blackburn with a clear purpose: make commercial fuel easier to control and account for. From the beginning, the work connects engineering detail to the everyday reality of the operating site.

02 / Early yearsControlled issue

Person. Vehicle. Fuel.

Identification, controlled dispensing and stored transactions establish the connection between the person, vehicle and fuel issued. That dependable record gives operators a clearer way to manage access and accountability.

03 / Connected eraFrom depot to browser

The site becomes visible.

Fueltek FMO extends the system into connected reporting for users, vehicles, transactions, stock and multiple operating sites. Fuel information can move beyond the depot and become something a wider team can review and act upon.

Stock gains another view.

Tankwatch adds stock, ullage, delivery and alarm information, giving operators another view of the fuel under their control. Tank intelligence complements transaction records and helps the complete site tell a clearer story.

05 / Employee ownership

The next chapter belongs to the team.

Fueltek enters employee ownership, placing the next chapter with the people who design, develop, build, install, sell and support its systems. No single department keeps the business moving; the strength is how the whole team works together.

06 / Twenty-five years

Still building.

A quarter-century after incorporation, Fueltek continues to develop practical hardware, software and support around real working sites. The technology changes; the standard remains: understand the requirement and make the complete system work.

Fueltek’s development spans controlled dispensing, connected reporting, tank monitoring and long-term support.

Designed. Developed. Built. Supported.

02 / Design · develop · build

One idea.
Every stage.

One team carries the idea through.The people who understand the requirement stay close from drawing and development to build, installation, connection and the support that follows.

Understand
the site.

Every system begins with the real operating requirement: the people, vehicles, fuel, equipment and information that have to work together.

02 / Develop
Turn the idea
into a system.

Hardware, software and communications are developed as one working solution, with the detail tested before it reaches the customer.

Commissioning is not the end of the relationship. Support comes from people who understand the equipment and the wider system around it.

From system design and manufacture to commissioning and ongoing support.

03 / The people

Built by people
who know
the system.

No single department keeps Fueltek running. The team does.Engineering, IT, development, production, installation, sales and support all depend on one another. Every role matters and every handoff matters. When one department is missing, the whole business feels it; working together is what keeps Fueltek moving smoothly.

04 / How we work

Principles, not posters.

01

Build it properly.

Start with the real requirement. Engineer the detail. Test what will matter when the system is in use.

Engineering drawing
02

Know the customer.

A depot, a fleet and an operating team are not abstract specifications. The right answer begins with how the site actually works.

Real requirement
03

Keep it working.

The relationship continues after installation. Support should come from people who understand the system around the problem.

Support after install
04

Never stop improving.

Hardware, software and communications change. Good engineering keeps useful equipment useful while making the system better.

Design for the long term

05 / Our approach

Don't throw away
what still works.
Make it better.

Progress does not always mean starting again.Where the existing installation is suitable, Fueltek can improve control and identification, communication and reporting around it.

Technical information

From individual equipment to a complete installation

Fueltek designs and develops its fuel management equipment and software, manufactures its dispensing/control equipment, and specifies and supplies the wider fuel installation.

Upgrade where appropriate

Review compatible existing equipment before deciding on replacement. The aim is a practical long-term system, whether the requirement is one fuel point or a connected depot network.

A coordinated project

Site surveys and demonstrations help define the requirement. Fueltek can coordinate integration, installation, commissioning and support for the agreed scope.

Support as the operation changes

Remote diagnosis, software assistance and field-engineer support can help maintain or extend the installation. Agree the support arrangement for each site.

Scale and ownership

We work with individual depots and national fleets. We do not charge for additional software users; your quotation sets out the wider software, communications, integration and support services.
