Founded in 1964, Air Enterprises is the global leader in designing, engineering, manufacturing and supporting air handling systems. The company is focused on serving the most demanding and stringent air quality environments such as hospitals, pharmaceutical manufacturers, research laboratories, as well as various homeland security applications.
