Company LUH

From a wholesaler for mineral raw materials to a specialist for graphite and mica

Most stories begin with once upon a time. The story of our company begins in the early 1930s, when company founder Georg Heinrich Luh established the wholesale company for paints and chemicals. While we are known as LUH in Walluf or Georg H. Luh GmbH today, “Farben- und Chemikalien-Großhandelsgesellschaft” remains part of our official company name to this day.

Meanwhile we have said farewell to paints and chemicals. Graphite and mica in all their diversity with numerous application possibilities have become our speciality. We combine our many years of wholesale experience with mineral raw materials and our extensive knowledge of graphite and mica. Notwithstanding this specialisation, our team does not see the world as black and white.

In-house laboratory for analyses according to ISO standards

The quality of our products is very important to us. In order to guarantee that the agreed specifications are met, we perform goods receiving tests for our products in our in-house laboratory. Every material has different properties that are important for the respective application, and are tested accordingly using product-specific measuring methods. You receive an analysis certificate with every order based on the values obtained.

You are interested in measuring methods that go beyond the standard or want to obtain an analysis of raw materials already being used? Talk to us.

ISO certificates

We have been certified according to ISO 9001 since 2003. Our quality standards are reviewed in the course of annual audits. The current certificate is available for you to download here.
