Our History
About ETEC

With 40 full-time employees, we have proven ourselves as a reliable partner. We play an advisory role and offer our customers the best solutions for sales, rentals, repairs, and maintenance.

The name ETEC creates a strong connection between the present and the past. A name that is globally synonymous with special (excavation) machines is now the brand name for electric excavators. All ETEC machines are designed by passionate individuals combined with practical experience, including input from you, the users! All ETEC electric excavators undergo extensive testing in real-world conditions before commencing serial production. The combination of user feedback and our expertise has made ETEC machines among the best-performing electric excavators in the market!

ELM was founded in the 1930s and has been active for nearly 100 years as a supplier of machinery for industry, municipalities, agriculture, and horticulture. After 25 years of being a dealer for excavators, since 2012, ELM has been responsible for the sales and service of the global brand Doosan in the Southwest Netherlands region.

In 2017, ELM Bouwmachines B.V. was separated from ELM Bleiswijk B.V., and at the end of 2018, ELM Bouwmachines B.V. moved to Transportweg 10 in Waddinxveen after acquiring the former ETEC building. At this location, ELM Bouwmachines can further develop itself as a complete supplier for the excavator industry. The ETEC brand has been a key pillar in this expansion, growing into a full-range provider of electric excavators!

We now have a complex of 10,000 m2 with a workshop of 3,000 m2, a painting facility with 2 spacious paint booths, and a fully equipped construction department where we can develop and produce machines in-house.
