The sole proprietorship came into being in 1973. After ten years, the business evolved into a corporation under the name Lakkerij Vandereyt Bvba.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1993<\/b><\/p>\n

Another 10 years later, in November 1993, Vandereyt Bakery was taken over from Simonne Nilis, Mr. Vandereyt’s widow, by Rik Vandoorne of Het Veer. A family group primarily active in the electricity sector thus set its first foot in the surface treatment sector.<\/p>\n

1993 – 2023<\/b><\/p>\n

In 2023, the Lakkerij will have existed for 50 years and for 30 years within the Het Veer group. A little later that year, it was time for renewal and modernization: Lakkerij Vandereyt became V coat.<\/strong><\/p>\n

And this in everything we do, in our services but also in our everyday goings-on and in our dealings with our customers and with each other.<\/p>\n

Two values are important to shed additional light on.<\/p>\n

The first and most important value is quality.<\/b> Our certificates<\/a> are a reference and guarantee the quality of our services.<\/p>\n

The second is respect. <\/b>In this changing world, one element remains unchanged: V coat’s commitment to the highest standards of ethics and integrity.<\/p>\n

At V coat, we also take concrete steps to minimize our environmental impact. Our water consumption is purified instead of discharged, and we aim to reduce our energy consumption. Our vehicle fleet has been greened with electric vehicles, supported by two charging stations. Employees are also encouraged to come to work in an environmentally friendly manner (by bicycle or on foot). <\/p>\n

Working with customers, we strive to minimize waste streams and reduce or reuse packaging materials. In short, at V coat, we are committed to sustainable operations and a greener future.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Read our code of conduct” shape=”square” color=”default” align=”left” el_class=”btn” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vcoat.eu%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F12%2Fgedragscode-V-coat.pdf|title:Our%20code%20of%20conduct|”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1669821888264{border-top-width: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;background-color: #38aee5 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Mission” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:32px|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff|line_height:44px” google_fonts=”font_family:Raleway%3A100%2C200%2C300%2Cregular%2C500%2C600%2C700%2C800%2C900|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”3″ el_width=”10″ accent_color=”#ffffff” el_class=”seprtr”][vc_row_inner el_class=”box-serc” css=”.vc_custom_1669903004012{margin-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner css=”.vc_custom_1669818766508{margin-right: 5px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”our-serr”]<\/p>\n
