The development of new and the optimization of current high added value products of improved quality, together with the implementation of efficient production processes aiming to increase throughput, minimize cost and reduce environmental footprint is the cornerstone of advanced industrial (applied, experimental but also basic) R&D work performed at Elkeme.

Based on close cooperation with our customers, partners, which allows a broader overview of their products and processes in their industrial plants, we are able to determine their precise needs and we provide effective and comprehensive solutions in terms of product development, productivity, quality and environmental efficiency.

To achieve those, however always driven by innovation, sustainability and operational excellence we conduct theoretical studies, state-of-the-art modeling and simulation of the involved physicochemical and metallurgical processes and engage in lab/pilot scale trials, design and scientific monitoring of industrial campaigns.
