In order to maintain a high level of quality of our products we have invested in our own RENAR accredited Testing Laboratory and authorized by ISCIR.
We are able to cover a full range of mechanical and hydraulic tests and examinations, through our team of laboratory specialists.
Destructive testing
The metallographic line allows for sampling and preparation of the metal samples in order to ensure metallographic structure testing.
Chemical composition can be determined using our devices, mechanical traction, compression, bending, technological tests and hardness and resilience tests can be performed with it.
Non-destructive testing
The lifting equipment manufactured by Elmas is based on metallic structures that require non-destructive testing to ensure high quality and safety.
Different types of testing are performed:
- visual examinations to detect possible technological, dimensional and surface flaws;
- ultrasound thickness measurement of metallic materials (UTg);
- ultrasound testing (UT) to detect defects in welded joints by conventional processes Ut, Phased array and TOFD;
- PET penetration testing for both metallic and non-metallic materials to highlight open surface discontinuities with fluorescent or color contrast solutions, depending on the degree of illumination;
- MT magnetic powders testing on materials with ferromagnetic properties.
Hydraulic tests and checks
The hydraulic stand in our laboratory provides hydraulic testing, checks and adjustments: closed and open circuit pumps and motors, mechanical distributors, valves and valves on / off.
We are honoured that, following votes and the jury’s analysis, ELMAS SRL was ranked first in the “Elevator/Lifts Commercial” category, with the photo “A Point of View”, in the annual photo contest 2024, organised by the US magazine Elevator World.

Elmas’ Research and Development Centre has developed an automated shading system that also generates electricity.
During 2022 and up to now, ELMAS has innovated and tested a modern design process for cars and call buttons for elevators. It all started with a concept that would ensure a safe use of the elevator, as well as a fashionable and user-friendly car design, both of these experimenting with a technical method. Until now, several such elevators have been completed and are in operation, for testing purposes of the technical process, the design of which has either a theme commissioned by the client, or proposed by ELMAS.
We are honoured that, following a rigorous and transparent assessment by a panel of environmental and sustainability experts, ELMAS SRL was awarded the prize of “Excellence in Circular Economy” for the second consecutive year at the Green Report Gala, which took place on Thursday, January 18, 2024, in the Throne Hall of the National Museum of Art of Romania.

Elmas, a domestic manufacturer of lifting equipment (elevators, industrial cranes, platforms for materials, etc.), invested 4 years ago in its own photovoltaic system. In order to provide the electricity necessary for the production process, the photovoltaic panels were installed on the roof of the hall over an area of 5,000 square meters, with an installed power of 312 Kwp.
In the current context, cities are severely affected by the parking crisis. The number of cars has grown at a very fast pace, posing major problems to the process of urban development. Travelling by car is a necessity, as most of the workplaces are outside the cities, while the homes, the headquarters of the state institutions, the hospitals, the polyclinics, the kindergartens, the schools and the universities are inside the city. In conclusion, there is a need for parking both at home and within the city. ELMAS, the regional specialist in the field of lifting equipment, proposes advanced solutions for the parking place crisis, which can satisfy the needs of the cities.
