L&L Products has been leading the development of sealing and adhesive products for more than 40 years.
Today, with our structural enhancing materials we call Composite Body Solutions or CBS® and our acoustic solutions, L&L Products
has again opened up new opportunities for the automotive industry.
To remain such an innovative and reliable partner, L&L Products believes that nothing is more important than people. People with a deep curiosity and imagination, listening to our customers.


Our history
L&L Products was founded in 1958 by Robert “Bob” Ligon and Eugene “Gene” Lane.
Initial product offerings were mastic and PVC sealing washers for the automotive industries. L&L began blending material formulas in its own mixers and developed an expanding sealant used in many commercial applications.
During the 1970’s, L&L Products developed «heat-activated » sealing products that cured and expanded in the automotive e-coating process. This technology evolved into numerous expandable formulas used to seal body cavities from water, dust and noise.

Continuous growth
The 90’s brought new challenges and opportunities for L&L Products as our automotive customers were expanding across the globe.
In 1996, L&L Products expanded into Europe with the creation of CORE Products in France.
Over the next few years, the Group expanded rapidly in all regions of the world with 1100 highly motivated employees to support our customer’s growth all around the world.
In 2007, CORE Products was renamed L&L Products Europe.
With the worldwide use of the L&L Products name, we underline our commitment to our customers to be as global as they are.
 
At the heart of our organization are professionals who put their customers’ needs first. In each department, our people focus on what is important for the customer:  
  • Material science
  • Superior engineering
  • Tailored service
  • Operational expertise

These four key success factors are tied strongly together. They are addressed simultaneously at every level of the company.
Our long experience of chemistry combined
with our automotive expertise gave birth to this «molecule-like» quadripod, revolving around our customers.
Above all, we recognize that our present and future success is the results of our highly qualified and motivated employees who dedicate themselves to exceeding our
customers' expectations.
