Our Heritage

At Elaf, our legacy is one of innovation, quality and sustainability. With over 50 years of experience in the industry, our heritage is rooted in the manufacturing and export of coir and rubber products. This rich history has allowed us to cultivate a profound understanding of material properties and production processes, enabling us to deliver superior products to our customers. Our heritage, while rooted in the world of coir, has a significant connection to the rubber industry. For over 50 years, the knowledge and expertise gained through handling and processing materials have naturally extended into our current focus on rubber flooring in the middle east.

We also believe that there is no one size that fits all and that while a zero carbon footprint would be ideal, it might not make economic sense for us as a business, atleast not in the current business climate. But we still believe that every drop counts and that whatever small difference we can make, we should, while upholding our core principles.
