Environmental protection

We are constantly investing in modern machinery and vehicles, which are always equipped with the latest Euro standard engines.

Always one step ahead of the times, we have already equipped all machines with particulate filters and bio-oil before the mandatory requirement. We also endeavor to process any material produced and reuse it as recycled material.

Dismantling work

We have been working in demolition for over 40 years.
Modern Oil-Quick quick-change system enables excavator attachments to be changed in just a few seconds without manual assistance.

Excavation work

One of the many activities of our company is excavation work.

We are equipped for all ground conditions (rock, bog, clay, etc.).

Excavators ranging from 0.9 to 32 tons are available for all work.

Road construction

 

We carry out the following road construction work for you:

• Earthworks
• Pipework

Environmental work

We design your environment according to your individual wishes with various types of natural stone and Terra-Mur green shoring.
We also create driveways and hard courts, as well as terraces with various interlocking stones.

Oil Quick & GPS

In the construction machinery sector, we were one of the first Swiss companies to equip our machines with Oil Quick. This means that excavator operators can change any attachment such as sorting grabs, concrete buckets, bucket separators, vibratory plates and swing buckets from the cab. No hoses need to be fitted or removed; everything runs without the operator having to leave the excavator. This enables very efficient working and a high daily output. The excavator control via GPS also works optimally on several construction machines, which enables very precise work.

Gravel processing & delivery

 

The first activity of the Addor company in 1954 was the extraction of gravel in the Lauibach Rohr, Lauenen.
Today we can mainly process concrete gravel 0-32 from the Lauibach.

We extract the following materials from these quarries:

Stone blocks of alpine limestone in various sizes

Seepage gravel
