The development of LUX ELEMENTS started in the practical world of the Lux tile specialist. The daily demands and tasks in installing tiles were a part of all deliberations from the word go. Today LUX ELEMENTS has an excellent name for itself and today it no longer stands for a single standard product but for a mature range of product solutions of hard foam support elements.
1945
The company was founded in Radebeul, Saxony as a tiling company. Tradition usually stands for endurance, experience and respectability. We can readily identify with these qualities and fully support the basic principles of the tiling trade. Being able to apply the know-how from the past in the present and recognising opportunities for the future form the basis for innovation.
As part of our contribution to modern building design, we have developed tiled partition walls for bathrooms with a concrete core, only 1 3/16–1 31/32 in thick, replacing the wall constructions bedded in mortar covered with tiles on both sides.
1960
Move to Leverkusen. Commercial freedom is the prerequisite for progress.
As part of our contribution to modern building design, we have developed space-saving bathroom wall units, complete with all the required profiles, doorframes, leaves and accessories, which can be used in industrial and administrative buildings, as well as sports facilities, schools and hospitals.
1975
Handing on the business from father to son. This family business is now in the hands of the second generation. Maintaining traditions and guaranteeing the future.
As part of our contribution to modern building design, we have developed a patented reinforcement fabric for thinbed tiling, e.g. on insulation layers. This innovation has also served as the basis for many subsequent product developments.
1981
The Original – LUX ELEMENTS® hard foam support elements. This pioneering invention in tiling was patented by Herbert Lux.
As part of our contribution to modern building design, we have developed a light foam core available in different thicknesses with a reinforced mortar layer on both sides for use in the production of ready-to-tile substrates for walls used in pipe cladding and bath tub cladding. There is also the 0 15/64 in “baby” panel used for levelling walls over old layers of tiles, which means renovating the bathroom without having to remove the tiles. The interlocked-split hard foam support element is used as the stable core for the new generation of modern tile partition walls.
1995
LUX ELEMENTS in Europe. Export activities expanded. Offices set up in France and the Netherlands, product names internationalised, and products divided into groups and systems.
As part of our contribution to modern building design, we have developed
TERA - system for balconies and terraces, CLIMA - insulation system for
ceramic facades, TUB - for showers flush with the floor or TWIN - for
uncoupling.
1999
Shift from having foam supplied to producing own.
As part of our contribution to modern building design,
we have set up our own production facility in
Ungersheim for expanded polystyrene hard foam, which
does not use CFC, HCFC, HFC or CO2 fuels, and introduced
new cutting and layering techniques in Leverkusen,
thereby forming the basis for the new generation of
environment-friendly hard foam support elements.
2004
The LUX ELEMENTS program is experiencing great
recognition throughout Europe. Therefore, constant
increases in capacity are necessary. The Leverkusen plant
has been significantly enlarged a number of times.
As part of our contribution to modern building
design, we have new developments and the latest up-todate
technology for the creation of complete wellness
and bathing environments.
2008
LUX ELEMENTS will open its own exhibition premises in
a building, especially designed to meet the purpose of
exhibitions. The new building will also include training
rooms, as well as further offices for the continuously
growing staff.
