Our History

HLS Linen Services was established in 1974 as a centralized service designed to provide laundry services to a collection of Ottawa-area hospitals who recognized the benefit and cost-savings associated with a single, centralized system that would support their unique, health and safety conscious linen and laundry requirements.

Since then, HLS has expanded to service hospitals and health care facilities, as well as hotels throughout Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec via a custom built, state-of-the art facility that was designed to exceed the highest standards of safety and efficiency.
