25 years of ELOKON GmbH

ELOKON receives honorary certificate
GmbH status was established in 1995 – but the compay’s roots go back further

ELOKON GmbH is looking back on 25 years of successful company history. To mark this occasion, a small group (due to Corona restrictions) attended the presentation of the certificate on June 19th by Dr. Paul Raab from the IHK Kiel to the managing partner, Dr. Volker Auerbach. The roots of the company go back to the mid 80's, when ELOKON was founded as an engineering office for the development of special electronics. The renaming to "ELOKON Sicherheitstechnik" and the change of legal status to a GmbH took place in 1995.
