Lamilux spotlight on solutions for robust lightweight construction

Under the heading of Expertise – Performance – Design, Lamilux exhibited its latest innovations at the show. While the Lamilux AntiSlip PES Clean Grip is an even more wear-resistant material for non-slip flooring, Lamilux X-treme provides a lightweight solution for last-mile vehicles.

The new Lamilux Anti Slip PES Clean Grip incorporates a special granular aggregate to withstand harsher and even more persistent loading conditions. This makes the anti-slip flooring even more robust. Its service life is extended, while the functionality of the material remains unchanged.

Lightweight construction for last-mile vehicles

The use of Lamilux X-treme in last-mile vehicles ensures considerable savings in weight while nonetheless allowing the construction of extremely robust superstructures. In sandwich constructions or as single sheet, this composite material sustainably reduces the fuel consumption of the vehicles.

Three demonstration models were exhibited at the Lamilux stand: the applications of the GRP products were demonstrated using truck, bus and last-mile vehicle models. For lorries, the materials used are High Impact with AntiBac surface, the non-slip flooring AntiSlip and the food-safe HACCP material Woven Roving 48% Plus SH for interior walls.

In the case of buses, Lamilux demonstrated its flair for design: LAMIfoamtex with its soft-touch surface, Composite Floor, which resembles laminate flooring, and LAMIGraph, for interior cladding, are the proven materials of choice here. And for roof applications, the manufacturer presents its robust and long-lasting Woven Roving 48% Gelcoat SH.

Added benefits

All Lamilux products are designed to satisfy a number of requirements at the same time. They always offer at least 2-in-1 or even 3-in-1 benefits. This means that Lamilux GRP, for example, combines a harmonious appearance with robustness and durability, and reduces processing costs and the number of processing steps for customers at the same time.

“The added benefits are the hallmark of our products: we’re familiar with the application situations of our customers and make the ideal products to satisfy their requirements”, said Mr. Markus Bächer, Head of Marketing. “In this respect, we consider it our job to keep on developing: to serve the customer, whatever the challenge.”
