Ever since the early years, Heinrich Strunz GmbH has profited from its willingness to innovate and ability to harness technological advances to the mutual benefit of the customer and the company.
Milestones:
2007
LAMILUX keeps expanding: Close to its 100th anniversary LAMILUX exceeds the 100 million EUR turnover for the first time in its history. Both company divisions - LAMILUX daylight elements and LAMILUXplan (glass fibre reinforced composites) - grow around 25 %. Dr. Heinrich Strunz: "Our company has a sound base." The number of employees also increases continuously. Within one year LAMILUX hired 70 new staff members, reaching a total of 400 people working at LAMILUX.
Attractive und challenging tasks: for the trade fair in Hamburg LAMILUX constructed and delivered a huge glass roof with a dimension of 19 x 60 metres. LAMILUX draws the attention of the professional media with this project as well as with the participation in building the BMW-World in Munich, which opened in October 2007. LAMILUX was responsible for the planning and realisation of the entire control technology for smoke and heat ventilation, natural ventilation and sunscreen.
2006
LAMILUX invests: a new production line for our LAMILUXplan material went operational. 10 million euros went into this new building at our Rehau headquarters.
In 2006, some 340 staff achieves a turnover of 86 million euros on our 100,000 square metre company campus. More than 10% of our staff are trainees in five different vocations, from industrial, production, and process mechanics, through industrial clerks to technical draftspersons.
2002
A substantial contract: LAMILUX is responsible for building the gigantic Terminal 2 at Munich Airport, including project management, development and fitting of control technology for the smoke and heat ventilation systems, optimization of the indoor atmosphere and solar protection.
LAMILUX grows: LAMILUX Heinrich Strunz GmbH achieves a turnover of more than 68 million euros with a staff of over 300.
2001
Plant IX for production of the LAMILUXplan composite material goes operational.
LAMILUX Steuerungstechnik (control technology) now a separate division. Complex controls and automation technologies for smoke and heat ventilation systems for integration with facility management technology can be implemented quickly and flexible by LAMILUX.
2000
At the end of the millennium, LAMILUX is an increasingly popular partner for large-scale projects involving daylight systems, SHEV systems and control technology. We keep on adding the names of global players to our reference list: BMW, VW, Metro AG, Uniqa Tower Wien, Audi, Expo 2000 Hanover, Brose, Schenker, Bosch, REHAU AG, Neue Messe Munich, Deutscher Ring Lebensversicherung AG, Peek und Cloppenburg, ... Demand for our LAMILUXplan material is booming – particularly in the USA where it is used for caravan building more and more.

1989
The LAMILUX Sicherheitstechnik (safety technology division) is split off the daylight element and SHEVS (RWA) division and established as a separate business unit; this reflects the significance of this future market. LAMILUX Sicherheitstechnik is responsible for project management, development and assembly of complex control technology in smoke and heat ventilation systems and its integration with facility management technology.

As an old-school entrepreneur, Rudolf Strunz identifies the future potential of plastics for the building industry and launches production of glass fibre reinforced products. The product name of the transparent corrugated rolls: LAMILUX - "LAMI" to represent the technical process of laminating, "LUX" for transparency to light.
