ILVE is a global manufacturer of gas and electric household cooking appliances that distributes its products in 40 countries worldwide.[1]

The word ILVE is an acronym that stands for: I – Industria, L – Lavorazione, V – Veneta, E – Elettrodomestici,[2] which translates to 'industrial standard electrical appliances made in Venice'.

History

ILVE started as a specialist in hand-crafted commercial quality ovens and cooktops in 1952 in the small town of Campodarsego, just outside Venice in Italy.[3] The family-run company then turned its hand to the Italian domestic market.

In 1984, ILVE ovens were first brought into Australia by Eurolinx Pty Ltd, the wholly Australian owned distributor for ILVE appliances in Australia, New Zealand, Asia Pacific and China.[4] ILVE freestanding ovens were the first of its kind to be completely manufactured from stainless steel available in Australia. ILVE appliances are now distributed through more than 400 retailers.

Product

The ILVE product line consists of a large range of freestanding and built-in gas, electric and steam ovens, microwaves, gas and induction cooktops, rangehoods, dishwashers and coffee machines.[5]

Events

In Australia, ILVE exhibit and sponsor regularly at annual food and industry events nationally. Some of these include Good Food and Wine Show, designEX, Saturday in Design, Crave Sydney International Food Festival,[6] and Noosa Food and Wine Festival.
