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 />
