About us

1984
Establishment of Liaudet SA

In 1984, Yvan Liaudet and his apprentice Francis Trolliet (current director of Liaudet Pial SA) founded Liaudet SA in Lausanne. Very quickly, the company acquired new trucks that were increasingly specialised in one area: sewer cleaning.

Sanitation, and much more

And no, we have never sold ice cream! Opposite is Liaudet SA’s first camera inspection bus, dating from 1986. Quite an evolution.

Early work

Gradually, the work carried out by Liaudet SA is becoming similar to what we do today. Drainage, lake clean-up, cleaning drinking water reservoirs… we take on every challenge!
