ELOKON supports customers across a wide range of industries where people, vehicles, and machines operate in close proximity. This includes:

• warehousing and logistics
• manufacturing
• production facilities
• intralogistics operations

Any environment where safety improvements can also drive efficiency and process optimization.

ELOKON provides solutions across three main business areas:

• Material Handling (forklift and pedestrian safety + fleet management)
• Machinery Safety (safety solutions for industrial machinery and equipment)
• Ventures (innovation projects and new technology development)

ELOKON solutions focus on preventing incidents and improving visibility into safety risks. Depending on the application, this can include:

• Vehicle–to-pedestrian proximity detection
• Vehicle-to-vehicle proximity detection and collision avoidance
• Vehicle-to-infrastructure detection and collision avoidance
• Warning and alerting systems
• Fleet management, monitoring and reporting
• Machine safety components and safety system support
• Integrated solutions combining safety + data

ELOshield^TM is ELOKON’s vehicle–to-pedestrian proximity detection system designed to reduce the risk of collisions in busy intralogistics environments. It helps make people and vehicles more aware of each other by triggering warnings when predefined safety distances are breached, supporting safer operations in warehouses and production sites.

Yes. All ELOKON systems are designed to be retrofitted onto existing industrial trucks, which makes them suitable for mixed fleets and multi-brand operations. This gives your company the flexibility to improve safety without requiring a full fleet replacement.

ELOKON solutions are designed for use on:

• Counterbalance forklifts
• Reach Fork Trucks
• Very Narrow Aisle (VNA) Forklifts
• Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
• And all other variants of material handling equipment

The exact setup depends on your fleet type, site layout, and safety requirements.

ELOKON systems are built to work flawlessly in harsh and demanding environments such as:

• Warehouses - climate controlled and not
• Loading/unloading areas
• Manufacturing facilities
• Production logistics

ELOKON systems help reduce safety risks by increasing employee awareness and enabling preventive action. Depending on your solution, this can include:

• Warning drivers and pedestrians in critical situations
• Reducing collision risk in blind spots or intersections
• Supporting safer behaviors through data and reporting
• Improving safety culture through measurable insights

The result is a safer environment and a more structured safety process.

Yes. ELOKON solutions are designed to support companies that want to strengthen their safety programs and align with internal safety guidelines and industry requirements. Many customers use ELOKON systems as part of a broader approach to risk reduction, training support, and continuous safety improvement.

ELOKON supports your business through the full project lifecycle, including:

• Consultation and solution planning
• System rollout and onboarding
• Support during implementation
• Ongoing service and technical support

This helps ensure the solution is configured correctly and delivers measurable value in daily operations.

Installation timelines depend on the scope of the project; such as fleet size, number of sites, and the chosen solution. ELOKON supports structured implementation planning to minimize downtime and ensure the system can be rolled out efficiently and reliably.

ELOKON’s Machinery Safety business unit focuses on improving safety around industrial machinery and equipment. This includes solutions and expertise that help protect people working near machines, support safe machine operation, and contribute to safer production environments.

Machinery Safety solutions are relevant wherever industrial machines create potential hazards; such as manufacturing lines, automated systems, production environments, and machine-operated workflows. ELOKON helps companies reduce risk and build safer processes through suitable safety concepts and technologies.

ELOKON Ventures is the innovation-focused business unit that explores and develops new technologies, partnerships, and forward-looking safety concepts. It enables ELOKON to test and scale emerging ideas that may become the next generation of safety and efficiency solutions.

Ventures helps ELOKON stay ahead of market needs by identifying opportunities early and developing solutions that address future challenges in industrial safety. It also supports collaboration with partners and accelerates innovation that can benefit customers long-term.

You can find brochures and additional materials in the Downloads section of the website. These resources are here to help you learn more about the ELOKON family of solutions, understand typical use cases, and explore how safety systems can be integrated into existing operations.

You can contact ELOKON in several ways on our Contact page. Our team can help you evaluate your use case, recommend a suitable solution, and plan the next steps for implementation and rollout.

Yes. ELOKON solutions are often used in environments where customers want to standardize safety processes across multiple sites. The systems and services are designed to support scalable deployment and consistent safety improvements across locations.

• Passive Warning Systems primarily focus on alerting drivers using signs, markings, barriers, fences, etc.
• Active Warning Systems focus on alerting both drivers and pedestrians with real-time alerting, alarm, and intervention

It’s important to note that neither approach is better than the other. Ultimately, your environment and safety goals will determine which technology should be deployed.

According to OSHA data released in 2024, the top 5 most common causes of forklift accidents are:

• Forklift Rollovers or Tip-overs
• Pedestrian Collisions
• Falling Loads
• Personnel Falling from Forks
• Emissions Poisoning

ELOKON’s family of forklift proximity detection systems work using several technologies including:

• Ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless technology to detect, warn and alarm both drivers and pedestrians in real time in our ELOshield^TM family of products
• Advanced laser technology in our ELOprotect^TM product
• Sophisticated AI camera technology in our ELOvision^TM product

The benefits of the proximity warning systems developed by ELOKON are:

• Safer and more efficient material handling
• Automatic detection of pedestrians near lift trucks
• Automatic detection of lift trucks near other forklifts or AGVs
• Customizable detection areas tailored specifically within your site
• Extended range for maximum protection
• Protection for any number of employees or vehicles
