Experienced<br />

ELK has over 45 years of experience<br />

in the field of industrialised<br />

prefabricated construction, two<br />

large manufacturing facilities for<br />

timber walls, one log cabin factory<br />

as well as one factory for windows<br />

<strong>and</strong> doors. In 2014 ELK built 1,047<br />

units of houses at an average of<br />

4.65 houses per day, using 35,600<br />

cubic meters of wood.<br />

Rapid<br />

<strong>The</strong> very highest level of precision<br />

engineering <strong>and</strong> manufacturing<br />

enables minimal assembling time<br />

on the site. Using a totally dry construction<br />

method means no drying<br />

time is needed after construction,<br />

ELK buildings can be assembled<br />

all year round regardless of the<br />

weather. Every project is realised<br />

within a short time-frame, which<br />

guarantees a rapid return on investment<br />

(ROI).<br />
