If the factory can produce 12 lawnmowers in 8 hours, it can produce 1 lawnmower in 8/12 = <<8/12=0.6667>>0.6667 hours.
To produce 30 lawnmowers, it will take 30*0.6667 = <<30*0.6667=20.001>>20.001 hours.
Since we cannot have 0.001 hours, the factory will take 20 hours to produce 30 lawnmowers. Answer: \boxed{20}.
