Anden

What Anden does

Anden, a division of Madison, Wisconsin-based Research Products Corporation, designs and manufactures commercial-grade environmental control systems for indoor cultivation and controlled environment agriculture, with primary focus on the legal U.S. cannabis industry. The company offers a portfolio of industrial dehumidifiers (210 to 710 pints per day capacity), commercial steam humidifiers (277 to 1,200 pints per day), reverse osmosis water treatment systems, precision environmental controls including the Model A77 remote, plus accessories and replacement parts. Its flagship differentiation is patented VLGR (Variable-Speed, Low Grain Refrigerant) technology on the A710 line, which modulates compressor speed to match load conditions, reducing defrost cycles and enabling longer run-time during the low-temperature late-flower stage where single-speed competitors fail.

Anden sells primarily through authorized dealers and its own e-commerce site, with a sales-assisted motion supported by Greenhouse and Grow Room sizing questionnaires that route prospects into consultations. Pricing is hardware-led with MSRPs ranging from approximately $3,378 (A210V1) to $11,510 (A710V3), supplemented by a recently introduced Autoship subscription for replacement parts. The company also benefits from utility-driven demand through rebate partnerships with Consumers Energy, Detroit Edison, Energy Trust of Oregon, and DesignLights Consortium certification, which channel cannabis cultivators toward qualifying Anden models. Customers are professional and enterprise cannabis cultivators (e.g., Glacier Cannabis, WildFire, Fiacre, Wojo Wax), with additional verticals in greenhouses and vertical farming. The company leverages 80 years of parent-company expertise in environmental controls but has no external funding and operates with a small employee base (11-50).

• Dri-Eaz (Legend Brands): Dri-Eaz, a Legend Brands company, produces commercial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers used in restoration and large moisture-removal applications, with capacity ranges comparable to Anden's A210/A320/A710 units.
• Condair: Condair manufactures commercial and industrial humidifiers (including steam humidifiers) and dehumidifiers, directly comparable to Anden's humidifier product line and overlapping in greenhouse and cultivation applications.
• Surna Cultivation Sciences: Surna designs and manufactures climate control systems (HVAC, dehumidification, fertigation) purpose-built for cannabis cultivation, competing head-to-head with Anden for the same commercial grower customers.
• Therma-Stor (Ultra-Aire): Therma-Stor's Ultra-Aire brand produces high-capacity commercial dehumidifiers used in grow rooms, restoration, and water-damage applications, overlapping directly with Anden's commercial-grade dehumidification offering.

• AprilAire: AprilAire is a sister/parent-company brand under Research Products Corporation, offering whole-home and commercial humidity control. It is comparable as an industry overlap (humidity/HVAC) but operates in residential and broader commercial markets rather than Anden's cultivation-specific niche.
• Trane Technologies: Trane offers commercial HVAC and humidity-control solutions for large buildings and is expanding into indoor agriculture and grow facilities, competing with Anden at the integrated climate-system level rather than standalone dehumidification.
