Making Sustainability Tangible
From Our Organization to Yours
At Lohmann, we believe that lasting impact starts within. That’s why we’ve developed a clear sustainability framework that empowers every team, every site and every decision to actively contribute – ecologically, socially, and economically.
Grounded in our EESG approach, this framework makes our commitment visible, actionable and relevant across the entire organization – from strategy to operations, from idea to implementation.


Making Sustainability Work - From Inside Out
In the face of global challenges, we see sustainability not as a constraint, but as a catalyst for innovation and resilience.
In this interview, Katharina Candia Avendano, our Global Head of Sustainability, shares how Lohmann is turning responsibility into action: from expanding solvent-free production to building structures that drive change – across the entire organization.
Actively Creating Impact:
Our Sustainbility Milestones
In recent years, Lohmann employees have set significant milestones in regards to our product and site sustainability. We have made considerable investments in sustainable innovations, such as developing award-winning solvent-free production capacities, introducing the bio-based and solvent-free adhesive tapes and collaborating with partners for fostering the sustainability of our production site and enabling circularity of our product waste.
TwinMelt®: Our Patented Technology for Solvent-Free Bonding
Since 2021, TwinMelt has redefined adhesive tape manufacturing by combining different adhesive systems and materials in a single, energy-efficient process. The result: smarter product designs, consistent quality – and up to 3,500 tonnes of CO₂ saved per year. 100% solvent-free and built for sustainable production.
Solvent-Free and Biobased: Our ECO Range
Our DuploCOLL ECO range combines a 50% biobased adhesive with recyclable liners – produced 100% solvent-free using TwinMelt technology. A smart step toward circularity and low-impact bonding.
Pushing Sustainability in Flexo Printing
With the DuploFLEX GRIP Range, Lohmann takes a significant step toward more sustainable adhesive technologies in flexographic printing. The solvent-free portfolio reduces environmental impact while improving process reliability and consistency.
A solution that combines eco-conscious design with practical benefits – for better results on press and a shared commitment to the future.
Site Sustainability Project "Going Green" with WZL at RWTH Aachen
Through our “Going Green” project the WZL at RWTH Aachen, we’re rethinking raw materials, optimizing processes, substituting existing products and driving sustainable transformation at our headquarters – step by step, system by system.
Product Carbon Footprinting at Lohmann
At Lohmann, PCFs are more than just metrics – they are a transparent and reliable basis for climate-conscious decisions. They help us and our partners identify emission hotspots, develop targeted reduction strategies, and shape more sustainable products and processes across the value chain.
Low Emission Portfolio for Automotive Interiors
Our DuploCOLL LE portfolio offers low-emission, solvent-free adhesive tapes for automotive interiors – meeting strict OEM standards while enabling design flexibility and process efficiency. Produced with UV-based TwinMelt technology, they support a more sustainable value chain and high-performance bonding for next-generation vehicles.
A Milestone for Circularity: Debonding on Demand
With Debonding on Demand, Lohmann redefines how bonding and sustainability go hand in hand. The technology enables controlled adhesive release where permanent bonds were once standard – unlocking new potential for reuse, repair, and recycling across the entire product lifecycle.
It marks a decisive step toward circular product design – technically precise, regulation-ready, and driven by responsibility.
