About Lav'pro
Lav'pro is a pioneering laundry and dry cleaning chain in France, positioning itself as the first green and ecological option in the industry. With a location in Albertville (73200), they serve customers who value both quality garment care and environmental responsibility.
The company's commitment to sustainability is evident in their choice of supplies: they use biodegradable detergents and cleaning agents. This reduces the amount of harmful chemicals released into the environment while also being gentler on the clothing and textiles entrusted to them by their customers.
For a business so dedicated to eliminating chemicals from their operations, the choice of a water treatment solution was critical. They needed a system that would protect their equipment from limescale without introducing any chemicals or salts—making Vulcan the perfect fit.

A Perfect Alignment: Chemical-Free Water Treatment for a Chemical-Free Laundry
"Lav'pro is the first green and ecological chain of laundries and dry cleaners in France. It uses detergents and biodegradable cleaning agents. The reduction of harmful chemicals preserves both the environment and the clothing and textiles of their customers."
For Lav'pro, every aspect of their operation must align with their ecological commitment. Adding a salt-based water softener or chemical scale inhibitor would contradict their mission. The Vulcan S10, with its non-chemical impulse technology, was the logical choice—providing complete scale prevention without introducing any substances into their water or wastewater.
