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.

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...

Future of Fiber Optic Cables

Fiber Optic Cables Introduction to fiber optic cables: While trying to find a way to transmit information at the speed of light, fiber optic cable was invented in 1800 by scientists John Tyndall , Alexander Graham Bell and William Wheeler. Even today, the fiber optic cable has a strong hold on us. The fiber optic cable is redefining ways of our lives. If you travel down memory lane, you should be able to recollect the hefty copper wires which were being used for communication purposes. They didn’t just consume too much power but were also inefficient in delivering the desired output. These copper wires led to wastage of energy until we came across fiber optic cables, which single-handed changed the game of communication. Praise the fiber optic cables for the high-speed Internet that helps you get your work done quickly. Its properties of being durable and malleable gives this product the tag of best in the business. Benefits of having Fiber Optic cables :...

5 Trends in Connection Technology

1) The trend towards intensified networking and miniaturization: Digitalisation is changing the connection technology environment in the sense that an increasing number of products and even individual components can and need to communicate. This means that an increasing volume of data has to be transmitted at increasingly fast speeds - something familiar in offices for years is now moving into the factories. Continuous increases in the performance of microchips is not only driving digitalization but also - in conjunction with efforts to improve resource efficiency - is resulting in a move towards increasingly smaller and more compact products and devices. A smartphone now has the processing power of a 1990s supercomputer but has a fraction of the size, energy consumption, and price.  This is having a big impact on industrial connection technology. Robots and other machines are becoming more compact and demanding an increasing number of data conne...
