"WE LOVE MECHANICAL AND PLANT ENGINEERING"
For over 25 years, our machines and systems from the canton of Baselland have been contributing to the success of international projects. In addition to high-quality products in apparatus engineering and general production technology, the name DEVO-Tech also stands for special expertise in the fields of vacuum lifting technology and tunnel construction.
We have been successfully implementing the individual requirements of our customers since 1997. Our high level of vertical integration is typical. As a well-coordinated, interdisciplinary team of around 30 people, we are happy to take on not only product manufacturing but also planning and development in line with your ideas and requirements. Thanks to our high level of in-house production, we are extremely flexible and naturally meet short-term production and delivery deadlines.
In our family business, cross-industry knowledge, expertise, quality and reliability have top priority. This ensures our own long-term competitiveness and that of our customers and partners. We attach great importance to the family character with which we prove ourselves time and again in all market situations.
Facts and figures
