A family business, an industrial standard
Since 1964, Vicari Violland has been growing precision know-how at the service of the most demanding industries.
Two family firms, one shared standard
The story of Vicari & Violland began in 1964 with the founding of Établissement Guillaume Violland, joined in 1971 by André Vicari et Fils. Two family firms from the Arve valley, built along the same guiding line: mastery of precision machining and the ability to deliver reliable, repeatable parts, ready to fit into an assembly.
United in 2006, they have grown alongside their customers, keeping pace with industrial change, strengthening their production resources, their skills and their quality culture. Since 2025, a new generation of technicians from the valley has been carrying this adventure forward, with the same standards and the same family spirit.
