About us
Craftsmanship in motion
At Viscofood, we design and build high-quality pumping systems for highly viscous food products – from smooth custard to firm marzipan. Each system is fully custom-built and seamlessly integrates into our customers’ production lines.
We operate worldwide in the food industry, with a particular focus on the bakery sector, where our solutions are used to dose fillings precisely and hygienically. But our mission goes beyond engineering: we aim to unburden our clients, optimize their processes, and build lasting partnerships.
Our story
