Everything is “Made In America” and of the highest quality.

Not all industrial washers are created equal, and LVO Manufacturing stands at the head of the class in workmanship, quality, and standard features. Their specialized bakery equipment was designed by a real baker, not an R&D department of a large conglomerate. LVO Manufacturing is highly differentiated with superior attributes and features built-in that are generally optional with most of its competitors.

Built to last 20-25 years, LVO washers are constructed of heavy-duty 12 and 14 gauge 304 stainless steel. They offer electric, gas, or steam heat and feature larger, more powerful pumps that deliver higher water pressure and capacity than any competitor. Baked-on proteins are stripped off pans. LVO customers won’t purchase from another manufacturer—no way.

It all started in the late ’70s when founder Lambert Van Olst, a local baker, believed from his personal experience with the drudgery of washing pans, pots, racks, and bowls that there had to be a better way. With the help of an industrial engineer, Lambert perfected a commercial washer design capable of washing 140-quart bowls, 18″ x 26″ baking sheet pans, and the always difficult-to-clean bread pans. He built the machine and used it in his own bakery with amazing results. In 1980, based on that success, Lambert founded LVO Manufacturing with the simple goal of building well-constructed, affordable washers.
