Aptean PLM Lascom Edition (Lascom)
At a glance
As of: November 2026 · based on vendor information, reviewed by usLascom is a French software provider founded in 1989, based in Vélizy near Paris and part of US software company Aptean since 2020. Its product is now called Aptean PLM Lascom Edition. Lascom is best known for PLM, managing product development and formulations. Lascom is a PLM system, not a PIM in the strict sense. It stores formulations, specifications and labelling data, which a PIM then prepares for individual channels. We include Lascom here because it is often compared with PIM in the food sector.
Features at a glance
- PLM: Formulations, specifications, supplier data and approvals in product development.
- Product data: a central data source from product development, feeding PIM, ERP and labels.
- Labelling: Data for labels, allergens and nutritional information.
- Regulatory compliance: Support for mandatory information in food and cosmetics.
Strengths and limitations
Its strength lies in connecting product development with product data: information defined in formulations and specifications flows directly into labels and product data. Customers such as Bolthouse Farms, Maple Lodge Farms and French cereal bar manufacturer Artenay Bars illustrate this focus. Lascom is too extensive for companies with no PLM requirements. The provider has a limited presence in German-speaking markets.
Who Lascom is suited to
Lascom is suited to food, beverage and cosmetics manufacturers that want to manage product development and product data in a single system.
