About Us
Splish Splash Rainwear was created in 2008 - a working mum who couldn't find any suitable waterproof pants for her toddler to play at the park.
Following an exhaustive search for good quality kids rainsuits on the web, I began importing Danish brand Kiba followed by Elka Rainwear into Australia. Partnering the rainsuit with a suitable pair of gumboots, my two daughters could get out in rainy and windy weather, and splash in puddles while staying warm and dry. I observed first hand how much happier and calmer they were when able to play outdoors.
In 2015, I began to import Elka's Waterproof Cleaning Workwear into Australia for a large industrial cleaning company. Their staff loved the quality product that kept them dry and comfortable in wet working environment, with the products lasting much longer than many competitors.
We have grown in strength since then, supplying many companies involved in food processing, high pressure cleaning, and facility management, where infection control, staff comfort and wellbeing are paramount.
ABOUT ELKA RAINWEAR
ELKA was founded in Karup, Denmark, by Ejnar Lauridsen in 1958. The name comes from the founder's initials (EL) and the city name (KA). The products were primarily underwear for men and women, as well as waterproof clothing. This has slowly developed into the collection we know today.
In 1979 the name was changed into the more international name "ELKA Rainwear A/S" and we have continued to work with the challenge to protect against the extremes of nature. This know-how means that we are able to sell high-quality products with excellent functionality.
The Elka Cleaning Range contain a wide variety of products, all with the common feature that they are produced at Elka's factory in Lithuania - right next door to their head office in Denmark. They are experts in PU high frequency welding, which is the absolute strongest production technology for waterproof workwear in these materials.
