About LAV
Founded in Kütahya in 1994, LAV was established with the manufacturing strength and vision of the Gürok Group, whose roots date back to 1948. As part of the Gürok Group, which has a strong legacy in manufacturing, tourism, construction, and fast-moving consumer goods, LAV has been committed to adding value to tables since day one.
With our innovative and technology-driven approach, we have become one of the leading brands shaping the tableware glass industry in Türkiye. Our goal is to transform inspiring moments into unforgettable experiences by bringing together aesthetics, functionality, and design.
Sustainability lies at the heart of our production philosophy. We embrace environmentally responsible manufacturing as one of our core responsibilities, focusing on recycling, energy efficiency, and water conservation.
Today, with a broad product portfolio ranging from drinkware to bowls and a daily production capacity of 2 million units, we rank among the world’s leading manufacturers. As one of the top five tableware glass producers globally, we continue to expand our impact while maintaining a strong production infrastructure with our two mega production facilities.
By placing research and development at the center of our operations, we became one of the few brands to develop our own production technologies through LAV Technopark, established in 2001. This approach sustainably advances our quality, efficiency, and design capabilities.
With our brand transformation in 2015, we strengthened our global identity and continue to grow worldwide with a sales and distribution network spanning over 140 countries. The New York showroom we opened in 2020 marked another significant milestone in this journey.
Through our sales and marketing office in Istanbul and our production facilities, we provide employment to more than 1,500 people. With a workforce in which 55% of our white-collar employees are women, we actively support a more inclusive and balanced working environment. Backed by the global strength of the Gürok Group, LAV maintains a strong presence in the glass industry with its brands LAV, LAV HORECA, GCA, and GCA Spirits.
By combining the inspiration we draw from our roots with global standards, we continue to bring aesthetics and meaning to every table.
