Inventor & System Designer: Biomass Systems

"Turn useless residues into high-quality energy". Over 100 years ago this idea of Heinrich and Alfred Lambion, the founder of “Maschinenfabrik A. Lambion”, laid the foundation for the Lambion brand, which is still successful to this day.

The company was founded in 1917 as the classic manufacturing plant, which evolved in the 1920s and 30s into a major manufacturer of combustion and feeding systems.

Ingenuity and consistent development efforts created new technologies, for instance the very first automated woodchip feeder, which to date allows for the processing, metering and ecologically sustainable conversion of not just wood materials, but solid fuels of most variable composition.

In the 50s Lambion grew into an industrial enterprise and was the first company to internationally introduce moving grates for use of chunky coal. In the 70s, the focus was on expanding international markets.

1986 saw the integration into an international corporation, in its attempt to expand its business activities into the business segment of renewable energies. Yet, in 1997 the partners pulled back to focus on their core business, placing the Lambion brand back in the hands of the Lambion family.

LAMBION evolved from a manufacturer of biomass combustion systems to a provider of complete solutions for decentralized energy supply from all sorts of solid fuels and biogenic residues.

The CEO is Axel Lambion, who took over the management of the family business in 2007 from his father Alfred Lambion.

Today Lambion provides any technological solution for energy generation from solid fuels with proprietary technologies from a single source.
