An official technical document from the 1925 International Exhibition of Decorative Arts in Paris mentions something key:
There were companies called “Société des laques & isolants” that produced materials such as “isolémail” (industrial insulating varnishes).
This is extremely relevant because:
It coincides with the name “Laques Industrielles & Scientifiques” (Industrial & Scientific Lacquers).
It indicates a highly technical sector: electrical/insulating lacquers.
It suggests that your company wasn't decorative, but rather involved applied chemistry (industry, electricity, engineering).
Probable functions of L.I.S. (Industrial & Scientific Lacquers):
Industrial varnishes: Protection against moisture, corrosion, and wear.
Insulating lacquers: Used in:
electric motors,
transformers,
cables.
Synthetic chemicals: Substitutes for natural lacquer (cheaper and more stable).
This type of company was key in:
electrification,
automotive,
aviation.
