Our Mission & Vision

Our mission is to enable all private and public sector employees to work digitally from anywhere, regardless of location. Our vision is to guarantee that our solutions result in increased efficiency and cost savings on the part of our customers and allow our clients to focus on their core business and activities.

We place a high value on the principles of proper business conduct and corporate social responsibility. Whether with our customers, partners, or employees, we always strive for lasting relationships that are based on mutual respect and trust. You can confidently transfer the administration of your archives and new document streams to our team.

Our Story

Our journey as a company focused entirely on archiving and digitization began in 2012 when we moved to a new prominent location along highway E313 connecting two major cities of Antwerp & Liege. This move was followed by a visit from Alexander De Croo (elected Prime Minister of Belgium in 2020) who testified that digitization market innovators such as Youston are helping our society’s transition to digital.

Between 2016 and 2020 Youston’s growth was further fuelled by acquisition of an additional 6.5 ha of space, investment from Concentra, and construction of a secure archive storage site, inaugurated by Mr. De Croo, with 500 km worth of archiving capacity. In 2021, Youston acquired iGuana, a leading document management & digital archiving solutions provider. Together, we are able to build innovative solutions to help businesses & governments transition from paper to digital.
