Maxon acquires Laubwerk

Maxon has acquired Berlin-based Laubwerk GmbH. Laubwerk specializes in high-quality, parametric 3D plant models used by artists in architecture, visual effects, and motion graphics.

Laubwerk’s plant models have been a part of Maxon’s ecosystem for some time, with a selection of Redshift-ready trees and plants already available to Maxon One subscribers through the Cinema 4D Asset Browser. The ongoing Capsules project will see this integration expanded, offering artists more ready-to-use assets to streamline creative processes.

The company also owned a Cinema4D scattering tool SurfaceSpread and the plant kits had integrations with several other DCCs in addition to Cinema4D, although the press release does not hint at their fate.
