What Qualitair does
Qualitair Inc. is a privately held Canadian manufacturer, founded in 1991 and headquartered at 1606 Jean-Lachaine Street in Ste-Catherine, Quebec, specializing in HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filtration equipment. The company designs and produces dust containment carts, negative air machines, and isolation room components for two primary customer verticals: healthcare facilities requiring infection control and code-compliant negative pressure isolation rooms, and construction/renovation professionals needing dust containment during work in occupied buildings. Its product portfolio spans 15 SKUs across three categories — Dust Containment Carts (HepaZone SW, HD, NF), Negative Air Machines (HepaNomad, Q350C/Q600C ceiling units, HepaNet wall unit, Predator 750 portable, and H1990LV/M and H2KM industrial units), and Isolation Room Equipment (HepaCrown/F retractable columns, 700P medical unit, SIP-PIC rapid isolation pod) — with HEPA filtration efficiencies of 99.97% to 99.99%.
Underlying technology centers on certified HEPA filtration with complementary innovations including source-capture airflow design, UV-C germicidal decontamination lamps (integrated in HepaCrown and HepaNet), and battery-powered wireless operation (the HepaNomad, claimed as the only 100% wireless HEPA fan globally, providing 16+ hours of cordless operation at 300 CFM). Flagship industrial units (H1990M, H2KM) carry NRTL certification to UL and CSA safety standards, supporting sales into regulated institutional procurement channels in North America.
Qualitair operates a sales-led go-to-market model combining direct phone sales (toll-free 1 877 444-8012) and a transactional e-commerce storefront (shop.hepazone.com) alongside a bilingual marketing website (qualitair.ca, English/French). Revenue is generated through hardware sales of capital equipment, with rental options available on select models and no subscription, SaaS, or recurring revenue streams disclosed. No public revenue figures, headcount, management team, ownership structure, funding rounds, or partnerships are disclosed in available source material, leaving the company's scale and financial trajectory opaque.
