Lohmann & Rauscher (L&R) is an international developer, producer, and seller of medical devices and hygiene products. The international company group grew out of the merger between the German company Lohmann (founded in 1851) and the Austrian company Rauscher (founded in 1899), which took place in 1998. L&R currently has over 5,500 employees worldwide.[3] In 2020, the corporate group is represented by 50 subsidiaries[3] and shareholdings in 27 countries, and by more than 130 partner companies. The company headquarters are located in Rengsdorf (Germany) and Vienna (Austria). The Group sales reached more than 7500 million euros in 2019.[2]
The L&R product range contains more than 16,000 products from the areas of medicine, nursing and hygiene – they include dressing materials, bandages (e.g. under the Rosidal brand), supports and orthoses (e.g. the Cellacare, Velpeau, epX brands), plaster room products (e.g. under the Cellona brand) wound dressings for all phases of wound healing (the Suprasorb family of brands), OR set systems and hygiene (e.g. the Raucodrape, Kitpack, Setpack, Sentinex brands), as well as consumer articles (e.g. the brands Bellawa cotton wool products and Senta feminine hygiene products). The company recently expanded its spectrum of services for hospitals with the L&R Optiline service concept.[citation needed] In the area of medical technology, L&R introduced the Suprasorb CNP range for negative pressure therapy in 2008.[4]
In addition to hospitals, doctors, nurses and pharmacies, L&R's customers also include medical supplies retailers, wholesalers and industry, and retail businesses for consumer products.

The L&R Accelerator Program, launched in 2023, is a 12-week program designed for high-growth startups, as well as L&R employees and partners. Its program addresses specific issues and subjects related to the medical digital industry, individual learning, and remote monitoring. From a pool of 100 startups suitable for the program, 6 startup companies from various locations across Europe and Singapore are selected to participate in the program. This program includes in-person workshops, mentorship, and masterclass presentations delivered by experts and leaders affiliated with L&R. The program culminates with a final pitch event, during which the participants present collaborative projects they have developed as part of the program.
In the inaugural year, the 2023 program awarded the top prize to FeelTect for their innovative Tight Alright technology. This wearable device allows remote monitoring of bandage pressure during compression therapy.
