Finding an AHU manufacturer who understands your project, can design to your exact specification, and delivers on time shouldn’t be difficult. But if you’ve ever tried to get a bespoke unit from a national manufacturer with a six-month lead time and a factory 200 miles away, you’ll know it often is.
We’re based in the Midlands. We design, manufacture, and install custom air handling units from our UK facility, serving clients across Birmingham, the West Midlands, and the wider UK. Being Midlands-based means shorter lead times, easier site visits, and a team that can be on your project within hours, not days.
Why Midlands Businesses Choose Us
Proximity matters. When your project needs a site survey, we’re there the same week. When there’s a query during installation, our engineers aren’t travelling from the other end of the country. When you need urgent support, we’re close.
Our Colmore Row project in Birmingham is a good example — an office block AHU upgrade in the city centre, with our team on site regularly throughout the project. That kind of accessibility makes a real difference to project delivery.
Local knowledge. We understand the Midlands construction market — the contractors, the consultants, the building stock. We’ve worked on projects across Birmingham, Coventry, Wolverhampton, and throughout the region. That familiarity means smoother project delivery and better coordination with the wider project team.
Flexible and responsive. As a focused, specialist manufacturer, we can respond to changes and challenges faster than larger national operations. Design modifications, accelerated delivery, site coordination — we adapt because we’re close enough to the project to understand what’s needed.
What We Design and Build
Every bespoke AHU we manufacture is designed for its specific application. We don’t modify standard units to approximately fit — we engineer from scratch to precisely match your requirements.
Commercial office ventilation. Temperature control, air quality, energy efficiency, and noise — all balanced for occupied workspaces. Our Colmore Row project delivered measurable energy savings through upgraded fan assemblies and controls.
Industrial and manufacturing. Process ventilation, fume extraction, high-capacity airflow — designed for the demands of production environments. We’ve supplied units for manufacturing facilities requiring continuous 24/7 operation.
Retail and hospitality. High-occupancy spaces with variable loads need systems that respond to demand. Our flat-pack AHU for a major retail complex in Epsom was designed for challenging access and rapid on-site assembly.
Specialist applications. From pharmaceutical clean rooms to airport terminals, we design for environments where standard equipment doesn’t cut it. Our Heathrow project required a bespoke unit meeting the precise operational requirements of a live airport.
Our Process
Consultation. We start by understanding your project — the building, the application, the performance requirements, and any constraints. Site surveys where needed.
Design. Our engineering team develops the AHU design, optimising for performance, efficiency, and practical installation. We share proposals for your review before committing to manufacture.
Manufacture. Built at our Midlands facility with quality control at every stage. Lead times are competitive because we control the entire process in-house.
Installation and commissioning. Through our Electroair division, we provide full installation and commissioning support. Our Midlands base means we’re on site when you need us.
Ongoing support. Maintenance contracts, spare parts, technical advice — we’re here for the life of the equipment.
