Viquerat Concept Industrie

What Viquerat Concept Industrie does

Viquerat Concept Industrie operates a three-entity industrial access management group headquartered in Aclens, Vaud (Switzerland), serving French-speaking Switzerland (Romandie). The group's commercial entity (Concept Industrie Sàrl) sources and custom-specifies industrial doors, access control systems, dock equipment, interior fit-out, and flood protection products from European certified manufacturing partners. Installation is delivered by Viquerat Technique Sàrl, and 24/7 after-sales service and maintenance is operated by Viquerat Maintenance Sàrl, including emergency repairs on the company's own products and on external installations. The company generates revenue through one-time project sales of custom-manufactured equipment and through recurring maintenance contracts and installation commissions.

The product portfolio spans five categories: industrial closures (sectional, basculante, sliding, fire-rated, rapid, and metal curtain doors); access control (rising barriers, bollards, fencing, anti-ram obstacles, gates, archways, turnstiles); dock equipment (shelters, levelers, hydraulic bridges, wheel restraints, dock seals, parking lifts); interior fit-out (cargo lifts, mezzanines, mesh partitions, vehicle lifts, shelving); and a growing flood-protection range (board barriers, rapid-deploy panels, flood-resistant doors and gates, hatches, and window protection). Differentiated technology features include shape-memory polymer rack protection rated to 175 kN impact, a 4-sided sealed flood hatch rated to 2.3m water height with 10ml maximum 20-hour infiltration, and shock-discriminating barrier alarms with 2-year battery life.

The go-to-market is direct field sales across Romandie, targeting industrial facilities and warehouses (primary), residential customers (particularly in flood-risk areas), public infrastructure requiring perimeter security, and parking facilities. Pricing is quote-based with no public rates, reflecting custom specifications per project. The group was founded in 2005, claims 14+ years (and in some posts 20 years) of collective experience, operates with no disclosed external investors, and shows aggressive product line extension concentrated in flood protection between 2025 and 2026, suggesting a deliberate response to climate adaptation demand in the Swiss market.
