What ELIM spol does

ELIM spol. s r.o. is a privately held Czech electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company headquartered in Volary, Czech Republic, founded in 1993. The company delivers end-to-end electronics production for industrial buyers, spanning design and prototyping through mass production. Its service portfolio covers four core lines: assembly of electronic and electromechanical assemblies; printed circuit board (PCB/DPS) assembly with both lead-free (Kirsten Jet) and lead-based (SEHO 1025) soldering capability; cable and cable assembly installation across power, optical, coaxial, flat, and light cable types; and manual and machine assembly of plastic products operating across three shifts. A fifth, separate product line is the development, production and distribution of industrial LED lighting, established in 2004, supported by an in-house LED laboratory for parametric measurement and the proprietary 'ZERO' series.

The company's customer base spans automotive (notably ŠKODA Auto), aviation, armaments and defense, logistics, rail transport, and food-industry suppliers (including Aptar for plastic assembly). Named enterprise customers also include REALPROGRES Prague Airport and Model Obaly Opava. ELIM exports to Germany, Italy, France, Great Britain and Norway alongside the Czech domestic market. Eligibility for safety-critical work is anchored by a multi-layered certification stack: ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 held since 2004, and VDE, UL, IPC-A-610, and IPC-WHMA-A-620 obtained in 2016, with all cable-assembly staff trained to IPC/WHMA-A-620 and all PCB staff to IPC-610.

Commercial operations are run on a direct, sales-led B2B model. The company issues quote-based pricing within 24 hours for electromechanical assemblies and 48 hours for PCB solutions, supports multi-year project contracts, and reports no digital marketing or distributor channels, with the corporate website serving as the primary information hub. Final product testing includes connection, high-voltage, short-circuit, and insulation tests; testing fixtures and adapters are designed and manufactured in-house. ELIM employs approximately 90 staff, is led by Executive Director Ing. Roman Pěsta, and operates as an independent limited liability company with no disclosed parent, investor, or external funding.
