Advanced Production Technologies
Lohmann-koester's state-of the-art manufacturing technologies and precise processing methods ensure closure systems of the highest quality – tailored exactly to your needs.


High-Tech Solutions from a Single Source
At Lohmann-koester, we combine more than 50 years of expertise with advanced production technologies to deliver reliable closure systems and elastic components for the global hygiene market.
Our fully integrated value chain covers every essential step – from in-house hotmelt formulation and extrusion of thermoplastic elastomers to coating, laminating, die-cutting, slitting, and cross-winding.
With technology centers specialized in nonwovens, PP hook and foils, and elastic laminates, we ensure maximum flexibility, lean workflows, and consistently high quality. Independent of intercontinental supply chains, Lohmann-koester delivers proven solutions – all from a single source.
Our Integrated Value Chain. Strong Bonds. One Partner.

We tailor each hotmelt formulation to your application. By adjusting polymer and tackifier systems, we fine-tune peel, tack, and shear, enable reliable recloseability, and ensure strong anchorage on PE backsheets, coated frontal tapes, and nonwovens – with low odour, skin-friendly forumulations, and stable processing at high line speeds.

Using advanced extrusion technologies, we process materials such as nonwovens and elastomers into structures with exceptional elasticity. The result? Products that perform reliably under pressure – and adapt perfectly to your application.

On our modern converting lines, we process nonwovens, foils, elastomers, and laminated materials into rolls, spools, or sheets – precisely tailored to your specifications. This also includes die-cutting: with flatbed, rotary, and laser technologies, we provide high-precision formats with tight tolerances and consistent quality, delivered close to your market worldwide.

We apply our in-house developed hotmelt adhesives to nonwovens, films, foils, and elastic substrates with high precision. Our coating technologies ensure consistent layer thickness, clean processing, and reliable adhesion – tailored to the specific requirements of hygiene products.

We laminate nonwovens, films, and elastic materials to create multilayer constructions tailored to hygiene applications. This enables softness, breathability, and functional zoning while ensuring stability and efficiency in high-speed production.

Every closure system is subject to strict quality control. We measure key performance parameters – from retractive force and permanent set to peel, shear, and breathability – to ensure consistent reliability in real-world use.
