Learn More

LAM’ON is an innovation-driven manufacturing company with a portfolio of print and packaging solutions that replace petroleum-based plastics. We’re reimagining how materials can work in harmony with nature. Our certified bio-based compostable solutions biodegrade completely, contributing to a circular economy where packaging returns to the earth without leaving a trace. With a clear focus on R&D, no microplastics and seamless industry adoption, we enable businesses to future-proof their packaging and printing solutions.

Brand Purpose & Story

LAM’ON was born in the printing industry, where we saw firsthand the massive amounts of thin plastic film used to laminate print materials and cardboard packaging—coating them in petroleum-based plastic to preserve their quality and enhance their appearance. We set out to change that. LAM’ON exists to replace petroleum-based plastics in the packaging and laminating industries with sustainable, bio-based, and compostable alternatives. Our materials match the optical, mechanical, and protective properties of conventional plastics while leaving no microplastics behind.
