LVMH Research Landscape: Recent R&D and Innovation Focus Areas

This landscape reveals what LVMH is actively researching on recently. It organizes signals from patents into clusters of real scientific and technical questions being explored, showing where LVMH is repeatedly investing effort, building knowledge, and reducing uncertainty. The result is a forward-looking view of strategic intent , often visible months or years before it appears in products, partnerships, or financial disclosures of LVMH.

What are LVMH's key R&D focus areas?

Mechanical friction clutch locking mechanisms

(3)problems

Mechanical energy storage and release in horological displays often suffer from friction and component wear. These innovations utilize monolithic structures to control instantaneous rotational jumps with higher precision and reduced part count.

Multicellular spheroid architecture control

(2)problems

Inconsistent pigment dispersion in solid and liquid formats leads to color streaking and poor shelf stability. This lever engineers the rheological framework to ensure uniform particle suspension and application performance.

Fluid dispensing orifice geometry

(2)problems

Inconsistent formula loading on bristles leads to clumping and poor consumer experience. Precise engineering of the brush architecture ensures uniform fluid transfer and lash separation.

Oil-in-water emulsion phase stability

(2)problems

Instability in multi-phase cosmetic delivery leads to phase separation and inconsistent active ingredient distribution. Precise control over oil-water interfacial tension ensures long-term structural integrity and uniform application.

Pullulan derivative film forming network

(2)problems

Surface irregularities and skin laxity create aesthetic dissatisfaction which is mitigated through the application of contractile elastic films. Precise control of the tightening effect provides immediate mechanical smoothing and structural support.

Rosa extract phytochemical stabilization

(2)problems

Inconsistent cellular regeneration and immune response rates increase the failure risk of topical treatments. Specific lipid and yeast fractions are engineered to modulate metabolic pathways for predictable tissue repair.

Polysilsesquioxane resin film architecture

(2)problems

Pigment instability and poor adhesion lead to cosmetic fading and uneven skin coverage. These innovations engineer the pigment-to-skin interface to ensure long-term film integrity and color consistency.

Crosslinked polymeric microgel networks

(1)problems

Uncontrolled release of volatile or reactive organic actives leads to rapid degradation and poor skin penetration. These innovations utilize tunable polymer networks to encapsulate and meter the delivery of hydrophobic compounds.

Alcohol-free surfactant nanoemulsion system

(1)problems

Traditional ethanol-based fragrance delivery poses flammability risks and skin irritation, which are mitigated by engineering high-surface-area droplet dispersions in water. This precise control of interfacial tension replaces volatile solvents while maintaining scent longevity.

Silicone water-in-oil emulsion architecture

(1)problems

Thermodynamic instability in multi-phase cosmetic formulations leads to phase separation and reduced shelf life. These innovations engineer the interfacial tension and droplet morphology to ensure long-term structural integrity.
