Our Story

We’ve been designing and manufacturing high performance sealing systems for over 45 years. Our intumescent seals are a vital part of a fire door assembly, helping to defend buildings against the spread of fire. Our smoke seals restrict smoke movement around a building - giving people time to escape, and reducing property damage.

In December 2018, Lorient was acquired by ASSA ABLOY - the global leader in door opening solutions, dedicated to satisfying end-user needs for security, safety and convenience. Since its formation in 1994, ASSA ABLOY has grown from a regional company into an international group with about 47,500 employees, operations in more than 70 countries and sales of SEK 76 billion.

Kerry Hicks, Lorient Managing Director said: "We are excited to become a part of ASSA ABLOY as they bring a wealth of technology, resource and capability to support the continued development of our ability to serve our customers. It will create opportunities for both businesses to add greater value to our customers by offering a wider innovative product range."
