About us
At the forefront of seismic services for over 15 years
Vaico has been providing seismic services to building sites for over 15 years. We helped to change the industry after the 2010 - 2011 Christchurch earthquakes through education and knowledge by providing seismic engineering design and code compliance for non-structural building services.
We’ve been crucial in supporting our distributors, their contractors and engineers in over 1,500 projects across New Zealand, Australia and North America.
In 2020, we responded to market demands for a more cost-effective solution for seismic bracing and suspension of building services. With the invention of V.LOCK, Vaico put the power back into the hands of contractors, allowing them to use engineers of their choice by bringing them the best market rate. Vaico’s Seismic Estimate Tool also gives contractors faster turn-around for quoting, design and sign-off.
Our approach
We believe in simplicity
The simplest product which is fit-for-purpose will win out in the long run. Our first product: V.LOCK was born out of adversity, and developed and refined with first principles at the forefront. This made it user-friendly, cost-effective and increasingly, the first choice for contractors around the world.
