The philosophy of elka-Holzwerke rests on 5 pillars
Wood and elka: A tradition
We love wood and believe in the raw material. After all, we have been working with it for more than 100 years - now already in the 4th generation. This is how the concept of manufacturing chipboard, sawn timber and natural wood boards at our integrated site in Hunsrück came about in 2014. This is unique in the industry.
Wood and elka: Innovations
In close cooperation with the wood trade, our customers and suppliers, we are constantly developing our products and finding new and sophisticated solutions. Above all, the intensive cooperation with renowned research institutes enables us to further advance innovations. This is how we became known as an innovative company with our "chipboards". We are proud to call ourselves raw chipboard specialists from the Hunsrück region.
Wood and elka: Sustainable wood products
Always in view: outstanding technical properties and guided by ecological principles. Sustainable low-emission wood-based materials are an absolute priority for us. The certifications of the "Sentinel Haus Institut" or the "Blue Angel", as well as the certification of the DIBt (Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik) from 2019 confirm that we should continue on this path.
Wood and elka: Service orientation and high quality
Planning security is important for a long-term business relationship. The entire logistics is designed with the customer in mind, because reliable adherence to delivery dates or short-term deliveries from our stock programme save our customers time. Our quality management guarantees high quality for all product lines. Leading purchasing cooperatives of the wood trade and companies at home and abroad appreciate our reliability and, of course, our product variety.
Wood and elka: Employees
We rely on the power of togetherness - 220 employees take care of smooth processing every day. Short decision-making channels enable efficient and thus customer-oriented work. At the same time, you will find personal and familiar structures with us. We make decisions fairly and in the spirit of partnership, keeping a wide range of needs in mind - both externally and internally.
