Our History

VLD Service GmbH was founded in 2023 in Switzerland — but our experience goes back over 20 years. Before creating VLD Service, we spent two decades as specialists in the installation and maintenance of industrial systems in the food industry across Europe. This experience — gained at hundreds of facilities in meat processing, dairy technology, convenience food production and the beverage industry — is the foundation of VLD Service.

Our headquarters in Wangen bei Olten is centrally located in German-speaking Switzerland, enabling rapid response across all cantons. When needed, we also operate internationally — in Germany, Austria, France and Italy.

What Sets Us Apart

Everything from one team

Most service providers specialise in either mechanics or electrical or automation. With VLD Service, you get everything from one team: mechanical assembly, TIG welding on stainless steel, electrical installation, PLC programming and commissioning. One point of contact instead of coordinating three different companies.

Manufacturer-independent

We are not tied to any machine manufacturer. We work on systems of any brand — and that matters, because your production floor likely has machines from multiple manufacturers.

Food industry focus

Stainless steel, HACCP compliance, hygienic installations — we know the specific requirements of your industry. Not because we read about it, but because we have been working on these systems daily for over 20 years.

Fast and direct

When you call us, you reach a technician — no call centre, no ticket system. A small team size means short decision paths and fast response times.

Our Industries

Our experience spans the entire food industry:

  • Meat processing : Conveyor systems, sorting equipment, packaging lines, industrial washers
  • Dairy and milk processing : Hygienic piping, TIG stainless steel welding, process installations
  • Convenience food and ready meals : High-capacity lines, filling, packaging, cold chains
  • Bakery and confectionery : Production lines, oven loading, conveyor systems
  • Beverage industry : Filling systems, transport technology, cleaning systems

We also operate in intralogistics, pharmaceuticals and chemicals — wherever technical precision and reliability are required.
