What Arrow United Industries does

Arrow United Industries is a U.S. manufacturer of HVAC louvers and dampers, headquartered at 450 Riverside Drive, Wyalusing, Pennsylvania. The company operates as a subsidiary brand within the Mestek Commercial Damper and Louver Group (MCDLG), itself part of diversified industrial conglomerate Mestek, Inc. Arrow's product portfolio spans approximately 317 individual products across 237 product groups organized into five main categories: Non-UL Dampers (control, balancing, backdraft, round, industrial, and multi-zone dampers; 63 products), Louvers (stationary, severe weather, adjustable / combination, acoustical, and brick vents; 121 products), Life Safety UL-Rated dampers (fire, smoke, fire-smoke, ceiling radiation; 97 products), Doors (aluminum and steel plenum access, duct access; 36 products), and Rooftop products (penthouse louvers and sunshades / vision screens; 17 products).

The company differentiates on the basis of third-party certifications rather than proprietary software or IP. Products carry AMCA ratings for air performance, air leakage, water penetration, wind-driven rain, missile impact (AMCA 540), and high-velocity wind-driven rain (AMCA 550); UL 555, 555S, and 555C classifications for life safety dampers; NFPA 80 / 90A compliance; ICC International Building Code compliance; UL Class I and II leakage ratings; UL 1.5- and 3-hour fire resistance ratings; UL 250°F / 350°F temperature ratings; Miami-Dade hurricane product approval; and FEMA 361 / ICC 500 storm shelter compliance. Manufacturing is conducted in the United States with sheet metal union certification, and the company maintains active AMCA membership. Recent 2025 product development has concentrated on severe weather and hurricane-rated louvers.

Commercially, Arrow United Industries operates a B2B go-to-market targeting commercial building construction (architects, contractors, building engineers), HVAC installation contractors, and specifiers of coastal and severe-weather applications. Products are sold through a regional sales representative network supplemented by the Sales Assistant portal for registered users, with no public pricing disclosed and custom-built configurations available across multiple material options (extruded aluminum 6063 alloy, stainless steels, galvanized steel, structural steel). Demand generation is supported by free AIA-credit continuing education courses delivered through AEC Daily under the MCDLG umbrella. The company is privately held with no public ticker, no disclosed funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no publicly disclosed revenue or headcount figures.
