What ATIB does

ATIB (legal name A.T.I.B., SAS) is a French specialist distributor of ventilation and air treatment systems headquartered in Sainte-Luce-sur-Loire near Nantes, with a secondary sales agency in Le Haillan (Bordeaux). The company was founded in 1974 and operates as a subsidiary of Sweden-headquartered LINDAB Group following its 2023 integration into that diversified industrial group. ATIB merged with fellow French ventilation distributor AERIA in March 2021 to consolidate Western France coverage.

The company's core product portfolio spans double-flow rotary and counter-flow plate air handling units (VERSO R up to 89% thermal recovery, VERSO CF up to 92%, MURAL PX up to 96%), single-flow and professional units (VERSO S, VERSO Pro 2, FFH, COMPO), thermodynamic heat-pump-integrated units (RHP up to 150% global efficiency), residential units (DOMEKT R), decentralized monozone heat-pump units (Airmaster AMX 4 with R290 refrigerant), adiabatic cooling (BIOCOOL), fire dampers, acoustic silencers, VAV controllers, grilles and diffusers. Equipment is primarily sourced from Lithuanian manufacturer KOMFOVENT under exclusive French distribution, supplemented by Airmaster and FUMEX lines. Products carry EUROVENT, TUV, Passive House, ISO 16890, ErP 2018 and PEP Ecopassport certifications.

ATIB generates revenue through hardware sales and complementary professional services (technical consulting, commissioning, maintenance, and QUALIOPI-certified training). Distribution is executed through a France-wide field sales network of technico-commercial advisors targeting tertiary/commercial buildings, industrial sites, residential projects, and professional kitchens, alongside technical support to engineering offices and installer networks. Pricing is catalog-based with a EUR 50 net HT minimum order, tiered shipping fees, and 45-day end-of-month payment terms; pricing is not publicly disclosed at the SKU level.

Broad incumbents

• Systemair: Swedish-listed European ventilation manufacturer with broad AHU, fan, and air-distribution product lines. Competes with ATIB on commercial and industrial projects but operates at multi-country scale.
• FläktGroup: European HVAC manufacturer (AHUs, fans, air-handling systems) operating across commercial and industrial segments. Competitor on large-flow industrial AHU projects where ATIB also competes via KOMFOVENT-sourced products.
• Swegon: Northern-European indoor climate solutions provider (part of the Latour group) covering AHUs, comfort ventilation, and acoustic products. Competes with ATIB in commercial and institutional projects across Europe.
• Zehnder: Swiss-European comfort ventilation and heat-recovery specialist with a premium residential and commercial positioning. Overlaps with ATIB's high-efficiency heat-recovery portfolio (VERSO R, MURAL PX class).

Regional players

• Helios Ventilatoren: German ventilation specialist with a broad AHU and fan portfolio. Comparable product offering to ATIB but primarily serves the German-speaking market rather than competing directly in France.
• Soler & Palau: Spanish ventilation manufacturer with European distribution. Offers fans, AHUs, and duct accessories comparable to ATIB's range but primarily serves Iberia and southern European markets.

Direct peers

• Atlantic: Major French HVAC manufacturer and distributor covering heating, ventilation, and air treatment. Competes with ATIB across residential, tertiary, and light-industrial segments and has substantially greater national scale.
• VIM: French manufacturer of ventilation equipment (fans, AHUs, duct accessories) with strong positions in residential and commercial segments, competing with ATIB on overlapping product lines.
• France Air: French ventilation and air-handling equipment distributor with a comparable product range (AHUs, fans, ducting, controls). Most direct distributor-model competitor in the French market.
• Aldes: French-headquartered ventilation and indoor air quality specialist offering AHUs, fans, ducting, and filtration — overlapping directly with ATIB's product portfolio and serving the same commercial, residential, and industrial customer base in France.
