Oxygen Generating Systems

What Oxygen Generating Systems does

Oxygen Generating Systems, operating as NOVAIR USA Corporation, is the North American subsidiary of French-headquartered NOVAIR Groupe and manufactures on-site oxygen, nitrogen, and medical gas generation systems using Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology. The company was founded in 1995 and is based in North Tonawanda, New York, with parent-level manufacturing and R&D centers in Italy. Its product portfolio spans three categories: oxygen generators (COMPACT plug-and-play units, MOGS mobile systems, trailer/container units, cylinder filling plants, standard OG units, and the advanced ION Oxygen Generator), nitrogen generators (NITROSWING modular, PSA Twin Tower, OmniN2, CompactN2, and Super TruMix Double mixing systems), and medical gas equipment (source equipment, pipeline equipment, NOVA-VAC vacuum systems, and an ETL-certified LCD Medical Gas Alarm). NOVAIR positions these systems as a replacement for delivered liquid gas, with 24x7 availability, guaranteed purity, and ROI claims supported by an online cost savings calculator.

NOVAIR generates revenue through three streams: capital equipment sales (oxygen, nitrogen, and medical gas generation hardware in multiple form factors), professional installation and commissioning services, and recurring after-sales maintenance and service contracts. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contract terms; no public pricing exists, but the company promotes IRS Section 179 tax-advantaged financing to lower the purchase barrier. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales, targeting hospitals, veterinary clinics, industrial manufacturers (laser cutting, heat treating, semiconductors), emergency services and government entities, military, and water/wastewater treatment operators.

The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485:2016 (medical device QMS), UL Listed, NFPA compliance, and a 2026 ETL Mark for its LCD Medical Gas Alarm (obtained through third-party testing partner Intertek). NOVAIR Groupe operates in over 150 countries with thousands of installations globally, and the US subsidiary leverages sub-brands (NOVAIR MEDICAL, NOVAIR INDUSTRIES) to segment healthcare and industrial go-to-market. Management team, headcount details, and financial performance are not publicly disclosed, and the company is privately held with no announced funding rounds or M&A activity in the available data.

Core offering

Oxygen Generating Systems (OGSI / NOVAIR USA) designs, manufactures, and services on-site oxygen and nitrogen generators based on Pressure Swing Adsorption technology, along with medical air, vacuum, and pipeline equipment. Products are sold as capital equipment to hospitals, industrial manufacturers, emergency services, military, and water/wastewater operators, with installation, commissioning, and maintenance services bundled through direct enterprise sales.

Product overview

NOVAIR is a manufacturer of on-site oxygen, nitrogen, and medical gas generation systems with over 45 years of experience. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) based gas generators organized into three core product lines: Oxygen Generators (including COMPACT plug-and-play, MOGS mobile systems, trailer/container units, CFP cylinder filling plants, standard OG units, and ION advanced generators), Nitrogen Generators (including NITROSWING modular, PSA Twin Tower, OmniN2, CompactN2, and Super TruMix Double mixing systems), and Medical Gas Equipment (including source equipment and pipeline equipment). The products enable facilities to generate medical and industrial gases on-site, eliminating dependence on delivered gas supplies.
