TOLDO

What TOLDO does

TOLDO is a privately held, fourth-generation Swiss civil engineering and construction group headquartered in Sevelen, operating through three core subsidiaries: Toldo Strassen- und Tiefbau AG (road construction, civil and utility engineering, natural stone and paving, landscaping, sports facility construction, and specialty foundation work including SOB drilled displacement piles and ductile cast iron piles), Toldo Recycling AG (quality-controlled construction material recycling at its Weite yard with a Landquart branch), and Toldo Rückbau AG (full and interior demolition, earthworks, and contaminated site remediation). The group delivers projects for cantons, municipalities, and federal agencies (notably ASTRA), as well as enterprise clients across media (TX Group Werd-Areal), rail (Rhätische Bahn), retail (Coop Immobilien), food manufacturing (Läderach, Jowa), and real estate (Peach Property, ASGA-Pensionskasse), using a modern GPS-controlled machine park and certified processes.

The business model is project-based professional services: revenue is generated through competitive tendering for public-sector contracts and direct client relationships for private construction projects, with quotation-based pricing and a published recycling price list (Preisliste 2026). Distribution runs through a regional office network of at least ten locations across German-speaking Switzerland and Liechtenstein, supported by direct website inquiry and limited organic social presence on LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook. TOLDO employs more than 200 people, trains apprentices through the Toldo Roadmasters program, and operates with family ownership through Thomas Toldo and Heinrich Toldo on the board and group management.

The group is currently navigating a leadership inflection following the death of Ronny Toldo on 8 June 2026 after a short illness; he had been a member of group management and the board for nearly four decades. Operations continue across all subsidiaries, with Fabian Toldo active at the Sevelen site, though succession planning and continuity will be a near-term strategic priority.

Core offering

TOLDO provides civil engineering, road construction, and infrastructure services through its subsidiaries Toldo Strassen- und Tiefbau AG, Toldo Recycling AG, and Toldo Rückbau AG. Its portfolio spans road and highway construction, underground utility and pipeline construction, natural stone paving, landscaping, structural and interior demolition, earthworks with contaminated site remediation, SOB bored piles and ductile cast iron pile foundations, sports facility construction, and quality-controlled construction material recycling.

Product overview

TOLDO is a Swiss civil engineering and construction group operating under the Toldo Strassen- und Tiefbau AG, Toldo Recycling AG, and Toldo Rückbau AG brands. Its portfolio consists of five interlocking service lines: (1) core infrastructure services — Strassenbau (road construction), Tief- und Werkleitungsbau (civil engineering and utility construction), and Naturstein- und Pflästerungsarbeiten (natural stone and paving works); (2) Umgebungsbau (landscaping and exterior development); (3) sustainable materials — Baustoffrecycling (construction material recycling); (4) demolition and remediation — Rückbau (demolition), Innenrückbau (interior demolition), and Erdbau und Altlastsanierung (earthworks and contaminated site remediation); and (5) technical foundations — Baugrubensicherungen und Gusspfähle (excavation support and cast-in-place piles). A sixth line, Sportbau (sports facility construction), covers tennis courts, artificial turf fields, running tracks, and multi-functional sports areas. The group also operates Toldo Rückbau AG for demolition and remediation and Toldo Recycling AG for material recovery, both as subsidiaries. Services are delivered through multiple regional locations across German-speaking Switzerland, from Sevelen (headquarters) to Wetzikon, Wil, Landquart, and branch offices throughout the cantons of St. Gallen, Graubünden, Thurgau, and Zurich.

Broad incumbents

• Marti Gruppe: Major Swiss construction group with deep civil engineering, tunneling, and building capabilities. Comparable as a multi-disciplinary contractor competing for similar public infrastructure and demolition tenders as TOLDO across Switzerland.
• Implenia AG: Switzerland's largest construction and real-estate services group, offering road building, civil engineering, and infrastructure across the country. Comparable as a broad incumbent operating in many of the same road, civil, and demolition categories as TOLDO, but at materially larger scale.
• Walo Bertschinger AG: Long-established Swiss civil engineering and road construction contractor with national reach. Comparable to TOLDO across road construction, civil engineering, and paving, though operating at significantly larger scale.

Direct peers

• Frutiger Gruppe: Swiss construction group offering road construction, civil engineering, and building services, with comparable regional density and project mix to TOLDO. Closest direct peer in terms of service breadth across road, civil, and infrastructure work.
• Eberhard Bau AG: Swiss construction and recycling group with strong focus on earthmoving, civil engineering, demolition, and material recovery. Closely comparable to TOLDO in service mix, including the integrated demolition/recycling loop and regional scope.
• Specogna Bau AG: Regional Swiss contractor with road construction, civil engineering, and excavation services in Eastern Switzerland and surrounding cantons. Comparable as a direct regional competitor for road, utility, and earthworks projects overlapping with TOLDO.
• Zanetti Bau AG: Swiss contractor covering road construction, civil engineering, and underground utility work, with comparable mixed public/private tendering model. Closely comparable in service mix to TOLDO's Strassen- und Tiefbau core.
• KIBAG: Swiss construction and materials group combining civil engineering, road construction, and aggregate/recycling operations. Comparable to TOLDO's integrated road + utility + recycling model, with regional Swiss operations and public-sector tendering.
• Heinrich Geisser AG: Swiss construction and demolition contractor with civil engineering, recycling, and contaminated-site remediation services. Comparable to TOLDO's demolition-and-recycling service line and similar regional public-tender exposure.

Regional players

• Hagedorn AG: Germany-based group specializing in demolition, remediation, and circular-economy material recovery. Comparable to TOLDO Rückbau and Recycling operations in capability profile, but primarily serves the German market rather than Switzerland.
