What it means to build German cooking appliances
To make truly great cooking products, that are reliable, functional and beautiful, we feel it is necessary to build them there, where people care a lot about quality and precision, and where people have pride of their work – in Germany. At ELAG, we empower all workers at any production step to deliver their best possible work. This is when true proudness comes into place and results in responsibility for every product leaving the assembly line. For this reason our work at ELAG is joyful and fulfilling.
Accountability – We work every day to uphold our standards and fulfill customer expectations
At ELAG we know that it is not enough to just set high standards. We also must work every day to ensure they are upheld. Throughout the assembly process of any ELAG product, there are several quality checks made. We developed our own system to guarantee high quality in- and outside every product. Assembly workers at ELAG are proud of their work. Every production step of each unit can be matched with the employee in charge and ensures therefore consistent quality.
To keep the bar high, our operation managers constantly evaluate with our engineers and assembly workers our production practices. We encourage our workers in group meetings to put themselves in the position of our customers. This is why ELAG employees truly believe to understand what its customers expect from German cooking appliances. ELAG’s management puts a lot of emphasis to be close to the product development and production stage. This is how we create alignment with our values throughout the company.
Every manufactured product is checked several times. One cooktop e.g. runs through 6+ visual examinations and electric tests.
ELAG's management is hands-on in order to guarantee flexibility and quality for its customers.
ELAG's Quality Check Labels ensure responsibility of each worker at any step of the production.
