New Website

Welcome to our new website. June 2009 marks the start of a new phase for Lamina Dielectrics. The last two years have seen us move from our old factory units into a new more environmentally friendly factory and become a leaner, more efficient organisation. Our new website reflects this and has been launched to make it easier to find out about our products, including the new Insulotube cable repair product and the Microcapillary films we have developed recently with Cambridge University. Lamina Dielectrics is currently developing several completely new products which we will launch during 2009. If you want to be kept informed of our new developments or find out more about the products on this site please contact us.

LHCb Industry Award

CERN - LHCb Industry Award

We have just received our second supplier award from CERN. The LHCb award relates to the particle detector straw tubes we manufactured for NIKHEF as part of their LHCb experiment at CERN and which are being used on the LHCb outer track. CERN industry awards honour suppliers that have made outstanding contributions to the construction of the LHC and its experiments. We are among a very small number of companies who have received these awards. This follows the award received for our work on the ALTAS detector. More details of the LHCb Outer tracker can be seen at LHCb Outer Tracker home page.
