The Netherlands Defence and Security Industry Foundation (NIDV) is the link between companies, knowledge institutes and the government. Established in 1984 by the Ministries of Economic Affairs and Climate Change, Foreign Affairs and Defence, and industry, the NIDV ensures the sustainable positioning of the Dutch Defence and Security sector at home and abroad.
The NIDV acts as an information provider, advocate and service provider for the Dutch Defence and Security Golden Triangle.
The NIDV regularly organises meetings and webinars. During project days, for example, contracting authorities explain new and ongoing (equipment) projects and governments and other partners are given a platform to get in touch with the defence and security sector. The same applies to the annual NIDV Exhibition Defence & Security (NEDS) with speakers from home and abroad.
The associated exhibition is a unique meeting place for government, knowledge institutions and the business community, where young, innovative companies also have their place.
Elfa will therefore be proud to be present at this event again this year! Are you interested, are you curious? The Elfa team would like to welcome you at our stand. Visit us 24 February 2022 on stand number: G1.3.

To test the extreme performance of Seto LED modules, Setolite immerses one of the modules in boiling water during an experiment. An induction plate set to the highest temperature level is used for this purpose.
The XPECT2 LEDs operate at 220-240V when fully submerged in water. Despite the fact that the temperature of the water rises to 100°C, the SETO XPECT2 lens module continues to do its work!
The LED module lights up continuously when immersed in boiling water. Even when the module is immersed alternately in cold and boiling water, the 100% will continue to operate without damage.
Watch the video below demonstrating that the SETO XPECT2 LED lens module is waterproof and temperature resistant, even under the most extreme conditions!

Elfa takes its responsibility to contribute to a cleaner and healthier environment for future generations.
That is why Elfa has started a cooperation with the Trees for All foundation.
Trees For All is committed to a healthier climate, restoration of nature and biodiversity and better living conditions by planting and restoring forests worldwide.
With this partnership we compensate every ton of CO2 emitted.
How does a CO2 offset for a healthier climate actually work?
Trees extract CO2 from the air and store it in their trunks, branches and roots. This storage can be converted into CO2 rights or 'carbon credits'. One carbon credit is equal to one ton of CO2.
We look forward to the positive results!

Nowadays companies and organizations are constantly evolving and are increasingly influenced by digitization. The optimisation of operational processes is a goal that we continuously strive for, as well as increasing our productivity. The idea is to work smarter and more efficiently.
That is why Elfa is investing in its logistics facilities by means of a Logistore measuring, weighing and scanning system. Using the 'Masterdata Toolkit' we digitally obtain the dimensions, weight, barcodes and other product data of our range. All the data needed to guide the article through all the logistic processes in a smarter, faster, error-free and sustainable way.
Watch a demonstration movie below:
After manually entering our own article number, the digital measuring tape scans the product's barcode so that the measurement results can be linked to the unique product.
When the article is placed on the digital weighing platform, you first scan the article using the digital measuring tape.
Like the well-known tape measure, the digital tape measure works with an extendable tape that is printed with barcodes.
When measuring length, width and height, the barcode scanner reads the distance corresponding to the stretched length.
These dimensions are immediately stored in the right place in our system.
In this platform, the weight of the article is also processed at the push of a button.
This data is stored in a folder for further processing by the content department.
Elfa supplies a wide range of maintenance-free lead-acid batteries from FIAMM. These lead-acid batteries are characterised among other things by their good cyclic performance and high power density. The robust housing is made of impact and shatterproof ABS plastic.
Important for the well-known battery brand, the batteries act as back-up power solutions to ensure continuity of energy supply to critical applications in the event of an interruption to the power supply. Elfa therefore supplies FIAMM batteries to telecommunications, data centres, railways, power plants, petrochemical plants and to parties wishing to realise energy storage from renewable sources, among others.
An example is the Fiamm High Rate Long Life 12FGHL28 lead-acid battery. This battery is ideally suited to generate a high discharge current in a short time.
Suitable for air/sea/rail/road transport (non-hazardous) and 100% recyclable. Fiamm batteries are suitable for UPS systems, emergency lighting and traction applications. They can withstand cyclic operation and can be deeply discharged in case of emergency. This battery can be used in almost every emergency power system.
For an overview of the entire range of FIAMM, click on the link below. Of course you can contact us for questions about one of the many batteries in our range.
Last weekend, Elfa featured on the television programme: 'de Barometer' in which entrepreneurs talk about their success stories, among other things.
Daan and Pieter talked about the rich history of our family business and how Elfa is preparing for the future.
As more and more applications become wireless, the demand for battery packs continues to grow. That is why Elfa is investing heavily in its assembly facilities now and in the coming years to increase production capacity and so be optimally prepared for the increasing demand for customised solutions.
Watch the interview below:
Elfa can provide a suitable answer to any question by offering a combination of a core product range supplemented by in-house production and assembly. Elfa also supplies customised solutions that are developed on a customer-specific basis.
This often involves modifications to existing products, but just as often completely new products are developed based on the enormous expertise that has been built up over more than a century. We have it, or we make it. Read more about our custom solutions:

The COAST SL1R safety lamp is seen as the first step to safety in many everyday environments, both at work and in everyday life through three different light modes. The lamp can be worn for general use and is designed to be worn where light is most needed:
Whether on a cyclist's backpack, a construction worker's helmet or on a safety vest. The COAST SL1R can be attached in different ways, namely by means of a handy clothing clip and safety helmet attachment (3M attachment sticker).
