Customer satisfaction survey

Elcam recently completed the analysis of its annual customer satisfaction survey, which was sent out in December. We extend our gratitude to all who took the time to provide valuable feedback, which supports Elcam’s continuous efforts to enhance our services.

Amir Bohadana, Elcam’s Chief Sales Officer concluded: “We were happy to see that the efforts we have invested during 2024 to uphold our promise of consistent delivery and support have resulted in continued customers satisfaction in responsiveness time, on-time delivery, quality and technical support. We are aware there are still areas where we need to improve as we observed a decrease in NPS score, which reflects the customers loyalty levels and aim to improve the score in the upcoming years”.

EU Regulation 2023-607 MDR News

As you may be aware, the European Regulatory Agency ECHA has set a deadline for the use of DOTE in products distributed in the European Market. This is a forced change that applies to all operators involved in the supply chain of plastic components, from suppliers of chemicals (substances) to manufacturers of products containing such chemicals.

The deadline for discontinuing the use of DOTE is May 1, 2025. After this date, Elcam will no longer be allowed to purchase raw materials, produce, or supply products containing DOTE. The new rule prohibits the use of DOTE even at a concentration below 0.1% w/w. All raw material suppliers have informed us of their decision to comply with the deadline and phase out all products containing the DOTE stabilizer.

To mitigate the impact of this discontinuation, Elcam has already replaced affected part numbers with new, fully compliant alternatives. These alternatives meet the same or improved quality and performance standards and are available for sampling upon demand. Our Customer Service team has already provided a comparison table of old and new part numbers to ensure a smooth transition. Elcam will be happy to support you in this transition and with any documentary requests.
