What Airflotek does

Airflotek, Inc. is a US-based distributor and marketer of air filtration systems and cleanroom equipment, founded in 1993 and headquartered in Suwanee, Georgia (with a mailing address in Hoschton, GA). The company sells a catalog of contamination-control products including HEPA and ULPA filters, fan/filter modules (FFUs), terminal ducted modules, cleanroom ceiling systems and lighting, softwall cleanrooms, air showers, pass-throughs, HEPA-filtered vacuums, shoe cleaners, cleanroom furniture, laminar flow equipment, and infection control equipment. It also distributes custom-designed fan filter units engineered to specification through its sister company TES-Clean Air Systems. Airflotek represents major filtration manufacturers in the channel, including Camfil, AAF Flanders, Envirco, and Process Systems.

The company's commercial model is quote-based custom pricing with a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise sales (phone and website request-for-quote) and an exclusive global distribution relationship with TES-Clean Air Systems. End customers are concentrated in semiconductor fabrication, pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturing, medical/healthcare, aerospace, and electronics — verticals requiring ultra-clean controlled environments. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is determined per cleanroom specification and customer requirements.

In January 2026, Airflotek was acquired by Cleanova, a London-based private equity-backed (PX3 Partners) global industrial filtration platform that claimed 19 industrial filtration brands and approximately 1,600 employees across 10 countries at the time of the transaction. The deal was paired with the acquisition of TES-Clean Air Systems, and the two entities are being consolidated into a single business within Cleanova, positioning the combined unit to serve AI-driven semiconductor fabs, hyperscale data center build-outs, and pharmaceutical/biotech production. Prior to the acquisition, Airflotek operated as an independently owned, privately held small business (11-50 employees).
