What Titanair does
Titanair (legally SAS GROUPE TITANAIR) is a privately held French manufacturer founded in 1999 and headquartered in Rillieux-la-Pape, operating as a 1-10 employee SAS with EUR 50,000 registered capital. The company designs and produces air filtration components for building ventilation and air conditioning systems, including pre-filters, mini-pleat filters, bag filters, V-shape/rigid-pocket filters, activated carbon filters, and absolute filters certified up to EN 1822 H14. Its core technology is a 100% synthetic microfiber filter media that eliminates glass fiber exposure and achieves 30-50% lower pressure drop than traditional glass microfiber media, with the proprietary GREENTEX variant in the TITAPAK S GR PRISME claiming a 40-50% reduction and removing the need for a prefilter stage.
Titanair has extended beyond filters into standalone air purifiers (EDELWEISS with dual filtration and UV-C; EDELWEISS ABSOLU with triple filtration including HEPA H13) and connected indoor air quality sensors (IXIA, IXIA LITE, and IRIS) using NDIR dual-channel CO2 measurement and multi-parameter monitoring (PM1/PM2.5/PM10, TVOC, temperature, humidity). The company has held ISO 9001 certification since 2017 and emphasizes sustainability features such as the TITAPAK S QUARTZ refillable filter, which reduces plastic waste by 80%.
The business model is sales-led B2B with quote-based pricing on custom-dimensioned filters; revenue streams are hardware sales of filters, purifiers, and sensors, plus rental packages for sensors and purifiers. Customers are categorized as HVAC equipment manufacturers (AHUs, rooftops, heat pumps), maintenance and facility management firms, hospitals and laboratories, commercial/public buildings, and industrial sites, with distribution concentrated in France via direct website sales and direct OEM engagement. No parent company, subsidiaries, funding rounds, M&A, or named distribution partners are disclosed.
