LASO’s philosophy

Principles and values that count.

Precision & quality

Really good quality products don’t simply fall out of the sky, but are the result of careful design, production and control processes. We have high expectations of our suppliers, constantly monitor ongoing processes and maintain a comprehensive quality management system in accordance with strict and comprehensive standards. All this guarantees great results!

 

Reliability & deadline compliance

We are completely reliable and adhere to agreements and deadlines. We only make commitments after making sure we can keep them. This guarantees our customers predictability and a smooth workflow, and forms the basis of our business relationships.

 

Fast & flexible

Our customers’ demands on our products and our ability to deliver are growing constantly. We are well organised and have a smart organisational structure and a secure and reliable stock-keeping system. This enables us to respond quickly to enquiries and process them in a customer-focused and highly flexible manner. 

Corporate success = team success

Our family business offers a good and fair working environment, a flat hierarchy and a collegial atmosphere characterised by team spirit and motivation. Our employees are dedicated, excellently trained and highly skilled, so that together we can achieve our ambitious goals and entrepreneurial success. Long-term employment relationships are an essential part of our corporate culture and illustrate the “LASO team spirit” and mutual respect and trust felt by everyone at the company.

 

Collaboration with customers & suppliers

We are a highly reliable partner for our suppliers and customers! Collaboration between equals, long-term and trusting relationships on both sides, have bound us together for years, often decades.

 

Development & investment

We set new benchmarks through continuously investing and developing our product. Constant further development is a matter of course for us. The expertise and skills we have acquired through this approach enable us to stay at the cutting edge and to develop and manufacture high-precision spare parts for our customers.

Sustainability & responsibility

We are fully aware of our responsibilities towards the environment and society. That is why we trust in resource-saving production processes and materials that are as eco-friendly as possible. Our corporate strategy is also founded on social responsibility; we install fair working conditions and promote ethical behaviour.

 

Our History

Of tradition and technology.

Almost 60 years at our production site in Germany.

LASO’s story began in 1965, in the Sauerland region at the centre of the country. Inspired by Arno Langenhan’s great-grandfather, who always had a great affinity for machining, grandfather Arthur Langenhan founded the company together with his son Gisbert, initially to produce and market hard-to-source water pump repair kits for cars. 

Healthy and down-to-earth growth

In its early days, the company was down-to-earth and modest – very much like the Sauerland mentality – but the young entrepreneurs were strong willed and believed in good ideas and precision. With lots of elbow grease, progress was made bit by bit.

A huge step towards becoming a quality-product company was definitely made when the new company premises and later the extension were built. In the years that followed, the company grew steadily, as did the workforce, the machine pool and the associated transactions. 

LASO’s good reputation soon spread far beyond the country’s borders.

LASO today

And today, in its third generation, almost 60 years on and still family-run, LASO remains true to its original mission: to manufacture high-precision spare parts that work really well. We are proud of our history and continue to focus on innovation and quality in order to exceed our customers’ expectations and to always be able to deliver top-quality products reliably, even in the most remote locations and under extreme conditions.

Passionate team players!

Dedicated, experienced and highly qualified.

Our team is composed of highly qualified specialists, energetic go-getters and skilled craftsmen, all of whom bring their extensive knowledge and experience to each and every project. Many of our employees have been with LASO for decades and have played and continue to play a massive part in our success with their expertise and dedication.

Continuing training and professional development ensure that our employees are always up to speed. 

With a strong sense of camaraderie, short lines of communication and a culture of openness in the exchange of information, we promote a working environment in which every employee can develop and realise their full potential. This in turn enables us to offer you the best products and service you can get.
