Overview of LAPP as Company

Here’s where it all started…
In the early 1950s, the revolution in industrialization led to a massive demand for cables and conductors.
When Oskar Lapp witnessed this development, he posed a question to himself: "How can I optimize the current method - the time-consuming manual inserting of single cores and switching strands into the outer sheaths?" In a while he got his answer. Thus the idea of the world’s first ever industrially produced flexible, colour-coded signal cable - ÖLFLEX® was conceived by Lapp and LAPP Group came into existence.
When it was still something new, in 1959, LAPP gave his products brand names and it quickly allowed them to be distinguished from their competition. Even in this, Oskar Lapp became a front runner to become the first person offering catchy branding that are still very much in use. LAPP’s most well-known brand is ÖLFLEX®, that has secured a place in the history of cable manufacturers India and the rest of the world.
In 1979, LAPP’s early step into globalization, something rather unusual for a German SME came in the form of ÖLFLEX Inc. USA becoming the first overseas subsidiary and it took off in no time. From its commencement, an uncompromising customer focus and committed client service has helped the LAPP group reap rewards. Today, when you think to buy cables online India, the LAPP Group’s name surfaces among the foremost cable manufacturers India.
Current day…
Producing innovative cables, industrial connectors, accessories and engineered solutions as a worldwide market leader, Oskar’s vision of becoming a global player amongst cable manufacturers India and the world players continues through his wife, Ursula Ida and their sons, Andreas and Siegbert Lapp.
Headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, the Lapp Group is a leading supplier of cohesive solutions and branded products in the field of cable and connection technology. With offices across the globe that employs thousands of people, Lapp has 18 production sites and over 40 sales companies. It also works in cooperation with around 100 foreign representatives.
Oskar Lapp award for those who make an impact:
In 1992, following the death of Oskar Lapp, Ursula Ida Lapp and her sons were anxious to establish an institution that would commemorate the life and beliefs of the founder of the company. As Oskar Lapp died of a heart disease, the family decided to dedicate the Oskar Lapp Foundation to the study of cardiology.
In cooperation with the Deutschen Gesellschaft für Kardiologie, each year the Foundation bestows a young scientist with an award who has shown unwavering commitment to cardiovascular research and whose work has enabled new findings in the field.
In conclusion…

With the tagline, ÖLFLEX® keeps the world moving, LAPP group is identified by its remarkability to actively shape the future, to embrace change and think in a visionary way that is focused on solutions and customers. The Group truly values their relationship with employees, customers and suppliers which are based on partnership, respect and trust. Together, the LAPP family along with their extended family control the fate of the company and are adding new chapters to its successful history.

Oil Resistant Cables: Know How Important They Are!

Demands of the industrial environment are ongoing, with ever-changing trends. Cables that were able to sustain functional and operational integrity a decade ago would not be adequate to survive in the environment of a present day manufacturing site. Everywhere, from the renewable energy industry and automotive assembly plants to the factories that manufacture small office machines, and even in some commercial buildings, oil resistant cables have become increasingly important. Oils serve a dual-purpose in industrial applications, both as a coolant and lubricant, depending upon the requirements mandated by the end use application. Sustaining trouble-free cable operation under harsh chemical and environmental conditions reduces costly manufacturing downtime and helps to eliminate or minimize periodic maintenance and costly cable replacement. All of the factors mentioned play a major role that is critical to a consistent, smoothly run manufacturing operation, which in the end res...

Fire safety of cables

LAPP Cabling Solutions Seconds can save lives Investors and legislators require more and more fire safety in buildings, in production facilities or in vehicles. Cables are also affected by this. In the event of a fire, they must not emit toxic substances and must not conduct the flame. Many people must surely remember the tragic fires on the London Underground, at Düsseldorf Airport, in the Channel Tunnel or in the Mont Blanc Tunnel. These fires cost the lives of many people and caused damage running into the billions. But it is not just these huge disasters that cause casualties. Each year, about 400 people die in smaller fires in Germany alone. It is thanks to the increased use of smoke detectors that this number has slowly dropped over the last ten years. In addition, the subject of fire protection is very important to investors when they erect buildings or purchase production facilities, not least due to statutory regulations. Here, careful selection of the utilized...
