Are you looking to develop a sealing, damping, guiding or steering function?

Our experienced technical, quality and sales teams will help you to develop your products:

  • Choice of materials: type, properties, …
  • Detailed geometric and dimensional specifications:
    with suggestions to make the process ‘secure’, robust, sustainable, high-quality and productive
  • Functional characteristics and tests,
  • Industrialization: design and production of injection molds, prototypes, pre-series, series, semi-automatic and fully automatic processes, testing facilities, 100% camera inspection, …
  • Functional controls throughout the life of the product, periodic audits.

We can mold your products to satisfy your requirements in terms of
quality, reactivity, cost and lead time.

We can help you to reduce your costs:

  • Semi-automatic processes developed in France and later transferred to ELTEC site in Romania
  • Fully automatic process
  • Assembly of sub-assemblies on ELTEC site in Romania

All processes are integrated and controlled

  • Manufacture of compounds
  • Tool design
  • Rubber bonding
  • Injection molding
  • Cryogenic deflashing / rubber grinding / post cured
  • Camera inspection
  • Packing
  • Maintenance
