Our history
L&L Products was founded in 1958 by Robert “Bob” Ligon and Eugene “Gene” Lane. Initial product offerings were mastic and PVC sealing washers for the automotive industries. L&L began blending material formulas in its own mixers and developed an expanding sealant used in many commercial applications. During the 1970’s, L&L Products developed "heat-activated" sealing products that cured and expanded in the automotive e-coating process. This technology evolved into numerous expandable formulas used to seal body cavities from water, dust and noise.

Continuous growth
The 90’s brought new challenges and opportunities for L&L Products as automotive customers were growing across the globe. In 1996, L&L Products expanded into Europe with the creation of CORE Products in France. In 2007, CORE Products was renamed L&L Products Europe. Today L&L Products has 1000 highly motivated employees to support customer growth around the world. With over 15 offices worldwide, L&L Products is committed to being as global as the customers we serve.
