What ClimaRad does
ClimaRad B.V. is a Dutch private limited company headquartered in Oldenzaal, Netherlands, that develops, produces, and markets intelligent decentralized ventilation units with heat recovery (WTW), low-temperature emission units, and integrated climate solutions. Founded in 2005 after more than two years of prior research (originating in 2000), the company self-identifies as the largest manufacturer of decentralized ventilation concepts with heat recovery in the Netherlands. Its core technology centers on per-room units equipped with built-in CO2, humidity, and temperature sensors that drive demand-controlled supply air and preheat, eliminating the ductwork, shafts, and central air-handling unit required by traditional centralized systems. The product portfolio spans the Ventura, Care, Vita, Sensa, and S-Fan/Fan-Box product lines, sold as configurable solutions (Comfort, Smart Supply, Smart+, Smart, Classic) for healthcare, residential housing, commercial, and monumental building segments.
The company operates a dual go-to-market model: direct B2B project sales in the Netherlands led by Commercial Director Ralph Liedenbaum, combined with an exclusive channel partnership through Excecon BV for the Belgian market. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware unit sales, supplemented by an aftermarket stream of replacement filters and spare parts via a company-operated webshop, and a recently launched professional services line — the ClimaRad Academy — providing installation and service training for installers, technicians, and project leaders. Quantified value claims include up to 40% energy savings on space heating, up to 9% reduction in building gross volume, more than 50% improvement in heat pump efficiency when paired with low-temperature emission units, and up to 51 dB sound insulation. System integration is enabled via a Modbus communication module and a partnership with the Honeywell Evohome Touch smart thermostat. The company holds no public listing, has no disclosed external funding rounds, and operates with a headcount in the 11–50 range.
