Asetek
Public liquid-cooling OEM for data-center and high-density AI racks, spanning rack-level and facility thermal loops used in HPC and AI campuses.
Operators and OEMs specifying liquid cooling for high-density AI or HPC racks who value a publicly reported thermal supplier.
Buyers who only need facility-level immersion tanks, or teams shopping for GPU cloud capacity rather than cooling hardware.
Verdict
Asetek is a good fit when your AI or HPC design needs liquid cooling from a public OEM with disclosed financials. FY2025 revenue was about $41.5M, which helps size the vendor, but deployments still ride through OEM and integrator channels. Practitioners like thermal performance on dense racks; schedule risk and channel packaging are the usual caveats versus immersion specialists.
Score Breakdown
How Asetek scores in the categories that matter to its buyers.
The Field at a Glance
Where Asetek ranks among Power, cooling & facility ops vendors we reviewed, by Overall Score and relative typical engagement cost.
Asetek scores 6.8 among power/cooling peers, behind Utilidata (7.8) and ahead of Submer (6.7) and Green Revolution Cooling (6.4). Relative cost is mid-to-high because liquid-cooling OEM deals are project-quoted.
Use-case matrix
| Use case | Fit | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Rack liquid cooling loops | Strong | Core OEM offering. |
| High-density AI rack thermal | Strong | AI/HPC positioning. |
| Facility immersion tanks | Mixed | Less immersion-first than Submer/GRC. |
| Grid / power orchestration software | Weak | Utilidata lane. |
| GPU cloud rental | Poor | Wrong subcategory. |
| Consumer PC cooling only | Weak | Data-center AI focus here. |
Who it’s for
Good fit
- Colo and campus teams specifying liquid cooling for AI racks
- OEMs needing a public thermal supplier
- HPC operators refreshing dense compute halls
Poor fit
- Buyers who only want immersion tanks
- Teams buying GPU hours, not cooling hardware
- Purchasers needing only power-grid orchestration software
Review Excerpts
Below are excerpts from public reviews. Paid reviews and pay-for-play sites such as Clutch were excluded.
“Asetek being a public OEM with audited numbers made the thermal review easier than with a purely private cooling startup.”
“Liquid loops on dense racks ran quieter and cooler than our prior air-only design once the CDU side was commissioned.”
“You still inherit OEM and integrator schedules; Asetek is not a turnkey GPU cloud.”
“We specify Asetek loops in the rack BOM and let the facility integrator own CDU tie-in and commissioning.”
Methodology

What we scored
The headline number is an Overall Score on a 0-10 scale. Eight criteria fall under it in two groups.
- Buyer outcomes (for power, cooling & facility ops)
- Liquid cooling performance
- AI / HPC density fit
- OEM / channel readiness
- Project delivery support
- Company & commercial
- Innovation & product leadership
- Project management & communication
- Pricing
- Contract fairness
Pricing measures whether the price looks fair for the value delivered, including packaging and renewal friction that show up in real buying cycles.
Score Composition
