ABOUT US

At Villari, we are dedicated to extending the lifetime of steel structures in ports, infrastructure, and the steel industry through our certified crack detection technology. Our permanently installed wireless sensors detect even the smallest fatigue cracks in critical locations of bridges and cranes by analyzing variations in the magnetic field over time. Compared to traditional methods, we offer continuous and accurate inspection, carefree installation, competitive pricing, and certified technology. Our unique and patented solution has earned the trust of esteemed customers such as Tata Steel, Rijkswaterstaat, ProRail, ArcelorMittal, and many more. We take pride in our extensive coverage of 1500 sensors deployed across 8 countries, ensuring the safety and longevity of critical steel structures worldwide.
Villari’s core values are the following:
1. Integrity - We are honest about what we know and what we don’t know for certain. We treat our data with the greatest care and understand that it this of utmost importance in this critical industrial environment in which we operate. Doubts and uncertainties are always welcome to be addressed openly, ensuring that nothing is overlooked or ignored.
2. Expertise - Our company is delivering seriously high-tech service: we’re not building a new app to order pizza. The combination of fatigue crack growth, ferromagnetic flux leakage, and seamless wireless communication is our unique domain in which we work with a proud team of highly skilled and intellectual people. Customers rely on us because we know what we’re doing.
3. Accountability - We take responsibility for our actions. There’s no “not my problem” or “I don’t care” attitude at Villari. Learning from each other and carrying a both collective and individual feeling of ownership is extremely important in order to be an effective and well-balanced team.
4. Exploration - Villari was founded on the idea that we were bold enough to take complex physics and turn it into a meaningful product for our customers. As such we’ve pushed quite some boundaries along the way and we’re not afraid to turn left where others go right. On all levels people should be encouraged to try out new things and to test “wild ideas”. We understand and accept that new ideas sometimes turn out to be unsuccessful, as this is an integral part of exploring.
5. Approachability - As a company, and as individuals, we want to always be open for discussion, feedback, doubts, or just a casual chat about a topic unrelated to work. This goes towards clients, suppliers, colleagues, and towards superiors and people under your supervision. We help each other out and listen when others have something to say, regardless of seniority.
These values are at the core of our business and identity and it’s very important that all our employees identify with these values.
