Elmont Bled d.d. is located in Bled, the renowned tourist destination in this part of Europe. The company’s main activities are organised into two production programs:

• Signage systems (design, signware production and development, installation & maintenance state of the art signware)
• Catering equipment (production and representation of professional catering equipment and coffee beverages)

The SIGNAGE SYSTEM program includes the production and installation of pylons, price poles, illuminated signs and other signage products for the needs of various companies and other clients. All products are the result of our own development and often also our own designs. The most characteristic signage products are pylons, signage towers, forecourt signage, light boxes. Development and production is computer-assisted. Engineering is also a vital component of visual communications.

The CATERING EQUIPMENT program comprises the production of coffee machines and fryers. Elmont is also a brand representative for an array of professional catering equipment. The company has extensive experience in this field and owns the AGE trademark. The AGE coffee machine is the result of Elmont’s know-how.

The company simultaneously fulfills the demands of a globalized market while meeting the needs of individual customers. As a dynamic company, Elmont actively participates in technological development. The matrix organization structure enables the adaptation of business functions to specific project requirements.
