Elium: Fast Facts

No currently existing device works well with both flower and concentrates, and concentrates are not well suited for use on-the-go.

Elium solves these problems by offering a multi-function, dose-controlled inhalation device that combines vaporizer and e-dab rig functionality into a single, pocketable unit.

Lack of Innovation in
the Market

Robin Wilder, the founder and CTO of S.E. Research and Design (d.b.a Elium), ran an extraction lab in the Colorado cannabis industry and was a vaporizer enthusiast.

While Robin was involved in advancing grow and extraction technologies, he observed lack of innovation in the vaporizer and dab rig technology, his favorite form of consumption.

It was inconceivable to Robin that consumers needed to invest in multiple devices to consume different forms of cannabis such as flower and concentrates.

Robin was further frustrated with how messy and inconvenient dabs on the go were but became concerned with the current prefilled cartridge solution that incorporate foreign thinning agents to lower the viscosity of oil in order to function with current e-cigarette technology.

He was also frustrated by the unsatisfactory durability (cheap materials, lack of reliability and overall aesthetic) safety and difficulty to clean currently available devices on the market.

Innovative Solution

Elium was built from the ground up to solve all of these problems by offering a multi-function, dose-controlled inhalation device that combines vaporizer and e-dab rig functionality into a single, pocketable unit. More specifically, our patented, automatic, volumetric dose control solution is unlike any other, making dabs convenient to enjoy anywhere.

Our user-fillable cartridge system uses moderate heat to decrease oil viscosity instead of introducing foreign cutting agents and works with an industry-leading range of concentrate varieties. Elium cartridges hold multiple sessions worth of concentrates, eliminating the need to top load on the go.

Elium offers best-in-class reliability (limited only by current battery technology), cleanability (eliminating the need to disassemble device to clean it) and safety (only medical and food grade materials in the vapor path along with redundant electrical safety features). 

With a category-killer flagship device and build in product development, S.E. Research & Design is poised to disrupt the industry.

Traction & Accomplishments

The Elium Alpha prototype has thousands of hours of machine and user testing logged without a failure.

We leveraged the internal technology of the Alpha prototype to create the Beta prototype, which introduces water filtration, and are in the process of finalizing the production prototype, which will incorporate a unibody design and chassis system to improve aesthetics and manufacturability.

Our approved and issued utility patents include:

• United States: 10,065,005 B2
• Canada: CA2979458C
• Israel: 267401

Patent pending in the EU (17883225.0) and Mexico (MX/a/2019/007463)
