Background
Background
Lipsker Co. was founded in 1962 by the late Yitzhak Lipsker, a pioneer in the geotechnics industry in Israel, and his late wife and partner, Ruth. In the late 1980s, their son Yoram joined the company’s management, followed by other members of the family, a sister and brother, Shiri and Nimrod, and a grandson Roy Lederberg.
At its founding, the company engaged in test borings and piles for retaining walls and foundations. It later expanded its activity to many fields, becoming a leading brand and recognized name in the field of geotechnics.
At the end of 2021, the company was acquired by the Shapir Group and is currently managed by Yitzhak's son Yoram and Itay Brin. Roy Lederberg serves as VP for Engineering.

Israel's leading company for complex works
The company's outstanding advantage is its vast experience performing special geotechnical works: professionally and logistically complicated works, many of which cannot be performed using routine equipment and ordinary methods. These are works that require finding engineering solutions to problems in the field. It is these unique jobs that Lipsker is the leading company in Israel.
The company is proud of the patents registered in its name in Israel and abroad in the following subjects: drilling equipment, steel anchors, polymer anchors, instrumentation and execution methods and more.
