About us:

The AVL Group of Companies was founded in 1998. Hamilton Metal Works (H.M.W), the group's founding company, focused 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.
