Better products begin with better knowledge. Product Carbon Footprint, Life Cycle Assessment, safety and internationally recognised methodologies are helping Lamberti better understand product impacts, strengthen customer transparency, support internal decision-making and drive more sustainable product innovation, while integrating sustainability more effectively throughout the entire product development process.
Products
Turning science into value
we are. Products
Innovation and sustainability are the cornerstones of our missions
Giovanni Floridi, Group Research Director, on Lamberti's product sustainability strategy.
The three pillars of success: long-term value, safer products and trust
How Lamberti constantly pursues the right solutions, the best alternatives and the latest scientific advances to enhance its products' sustainability stance
Creating long-term value: Explore how research, product innovation, intellectual property and digitalisation help Lamberti create economic value, strengthen competitiveness and support sustainable long-term growth through responsible governance, science-based innovation and measurable progress.
Designing safer solutions: see how Lamberti integrates sustainability and circular objectives into product design, progressively substituting and minimising substances of concern while improving resourse efficiency and waste management to deliver safer and more sustainable solutions.
Products that build trust: Learn how Lamberti delivers safe, reliable and sustainable solutions through product safety, product performance and customer support, while promoting health, education, inclusion and environmental responsibility through initiatives across different regions.
Biomimicry: Natures’ surprising superpowers as a blueprint to deliver ever more sustainable products with truly amazing properties
Making Tiles Flex
Inspired by Nature, Engineered by Science
From trees to squids to plants nature teaches us resilience, precision, and adaptability.
At Lamberti, we turn these lessons into chemical innovation for ceramic:
Flexible tiles? Inspired by how wood bends in the wind.
Stable ink dispersions? Like squid ink in water.
Perfect glaze levelling? Just like roots absorbing water.
Biomimicry isn’t a trend — it’s our method.
Coating the future
Sustainable Chemistry for Flexible Packaging
Can we truly replace plastic in flexible packaging? Yes — if we start with paper, and add the right chemistry.
Lamberti’s Surface Treatment Division is leading the way with water-based barrier coatings that make paper perform like plastic — but with none of its downsides.
These innovative coatings make paper heat-sealable, resistant and protective, while staying recyclable, bio-based and low-impact.
Circular packaging made possible through smart science.
Clean leather
Nature teaches us that less is more
Leather production, as ancient and natural as it might be, always raised safety and environmental concerns. So far. The real innovation comes from removing, not adding.
With 1K Technology, we eliminated the superfluous — and rebalanced the entire leather finishing process.
A solution that’s effective, simpler, and kinder to both people and the planet : It’s a natural revolution.
From renewable raw materials, lower-VOC formulations and bio-based solutions to technologies that reduce water use and safer preservative systems, Lamberti supports UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 (Good Health and Well-being), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). To support customer transparency, regulatory compliance and internal decision-making, Lamberti established an internal Product Sustainability Team and developed Product Carbon Footprint and Life Cycle Assessment capabilities, integrating sustainability into product development while continuing to deliver the performance, transparency and safety customers expect.
