Lavo has been manufacturing, distributing and marketing high-quality laundry detergents and household cleaners for more than half a century in Canada and the Northeastern United States.

Four hundred and twenty-five employees work in three locations: at the headquarters in Montreal East where our 135,000 square-foot, ultra-modern plant is located, in Laval and Toronto.

At Lavo, we have a complete integration system:

• Research and development

• Container manufacturing
• Mixture preparation
• Conditioning
• Distribution
• Marketing

Our brands are strong and enjoy an excellent reputation among Canadian consumers. They are distributed in grocery stores, pharmacies, superstore chains and warehouse clubs.

We have products in 6 categories:

• Bleaches
• Liquid detergents
• Liquid fabric softeners
• Fabric softener sheets
• All-purpose cleaners
• Glass and surface cleaners

Our mission is to manufacture, distribute and market high-quality, traditional and green laundry and household cleaning products, under our own brands and private labels, to consumers in Canada and the Northeastern United States, and to promote the sale of our industrial and institutional products.

Our laboratory plays an essential role in Lavo’s expertise, as it is responsible for quality control, enhancing classic formulas and developing new ones. No effort is spared to ensure consistent quality in both the formulation and packaging of our products.

We do all we can to ensure that our facilities continue to be at the leading edge of technology. To integrate our business processes, we have acquired JD Edwards’ ERP software system.

Our new, ultra-modern, 130,000-square-foot plant in Montreal’s east end is equipped with the latest production systems that combine flexibility and speed.  This is just one way we are working to take the lead and to greatly increase our ability to respond effectively to future demand.

We also have a plant in Toronto and have established a strategic alliance with a manufacturer in Western Canada, making it possible for us to better serve our customers across Canada.

The just-in-time system means we can guarantee good product turnover. We also have teams working in manufacturing 24 hours a day to maximize production.
