History
Elektrolas is a family business that was started in 2000 by Joost van den Hooven. Initially, the business consisted of the sale and maintenance of welding equipment. Over the years, the company gradually expanded. First with rentals. After the European regulation EN 1090 in 2013, the services Training and Quality Management were added to Elektrolas' range of services. The premises have been expanded, the in-house Welding School has been built and the services have been bundled into the Disk-of-five.

Innovating - The welding workshop of tomorrow
The scarcity of good professionals and the increasing complexity of welding activities make it necessary to redesign the organization and production processes. In doing so, our customers often face three challenges:
- Innovating: moving with the changes in the market strengthens the competitive position.
- Atomization: the demand for increasingly smaller series with greater diversity is increasing and there is a shortage of personnel.
- Organization: Due to limited raw materials and increasing delivery times, companies are bringing their production back to the Netherlands. In addition, the burden of proof and reproducibility are becoming increasingly important.
