About us

The main practice of the company today is a combination of research and construction activities.

Company history

VN Engineering Ltd. was founded in 2011 by Vladimir Nikolov as a construction testing laboratory. Years of work and persistence have established the company as a leader in the investigation of building materials and structures.

Continuous improvement of our research base and skills has turned the laboratory into a body capable of the full range of testing and inspection of building elements.

The nature of the work has instilled a high level of precision and personal responsibility, which we bring to every task. It taught us how matter behaves, how it changes over time, how it forms structures and how we can act on it — and it helped us find solutions where none seemed to exist.

The need for new challenges led us to apply that experience and knowledge to building structures. Since 2018 VN Engineering Ltd. has expanded into construction, and today it carries out construction and engineering of new buildings and facilities, reconstruction of existing ones and demolition of old ones.
