Innovation

Since pioneering the collection and conversion of biogas-to-energy in 1982 (see history for further information on our story), LMS has created a strong history and culture of innovation.  

 

These innovations, which include a number of ‘Australian firsts’, have instilled a culture of innovation within the company’s DNA and enabled LMS to become Australia’s bioenergy leaders and recognised industry innovators.
