Our Story
AVL was founded in 1998 as H.M.W. focusing primarily on large custom fabrications and machining. In 2006, H.M.W. changed its name to AVL Manufacturing, adding full assembly, project management and single source supply chain services to its portfolio. AVL Manufacturing has now transformed into one of Canada’s largest privately owned engineering, manufacturing and assembly facilities.
AVL provides clients with unique collaborative design, engineering, project and supply chain management for full manufacturing and assembly solutions. We achieve this with our extensive supply chain, manufacturing facility and quality control program, supported by our commitment to health and safety.
In order to exceed our Client’s satisfaction, we commit to understanding their needs. From concept to commissioning, our unique company has your project covered.
