Lehmann&Voss, Hamburg, Germany, has successfully completed ahead of schedule the relocation of major laboratory and pilot plant facilities to the new laboratory building at its Hamburg-Wandsbek site. The foundation stone for the new innovation centre had been laid in Wandsbek in October 2017 and the topping-out ceremony was celebrated in April last year.

A total of more than €4.5 million has been invested in the new building, which is equipped with state-of-the-art test facilities combined with modern building services. These facilities are used for quality testing of raw materials and sales products, for the development of the LEHVOSS Group’s own products and for formulation development based on its products as support for customers.

“Since its foundation, Lehmann&Voss has paid great attention to maintaining a high level of expertise in its business units and to marketing products tailored to the individual customers”, explained managing partner Dr Thomas Oehmichen. “By constructing the new laboratory and pilot plant building, we are aiming to ensure that we can retain and continue expanding our leading position in the field of plastics (compounds, 3-D printing, masterbatches and composites) but also in raw materials for rubber as well as for paint and varnish”.

The Wandsbek plant is the site for the critical stage in the development of products that are then produced globally in LEHVOSS Group plants in Wandsbek, Solingen, Kunshan (China) and Pawcatuck (USA). www.lehvoss.com
