Cleanova, a global leader in advanced industrial filtration, has announced the acquisition of two U.S. companies, Airflotek and TES-Clean Air Systems, as part of its strategic growth plans.
Established in 1993, Airflotek specializes in the design and manufacture of customized air filtration and controlled-environment solutions for high-performance cleanrooms around the world. Its systems support industries with the most demanding air-quality standards, such as semiconductor production, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. TES-Clean Air Systems, founded in 1986, serves as the exclusive distributor of Airflotek products and contributes deep expertise in cleanroom and semiconductor applications, supporting customers globally.
These acquisitions give Cleanova immediate entry into ultra-clean, controlled environments critical to AI-driven semiconductor manufacturing, the rapid build-out of data centers and high-performance computing infrastructure, and aseptic pharmaceutical and biotechnology production, where reliability, performance, and contamination control are absolutely mission-critical.
Airflotek and TES-Clean Air Systems bring deep expertise and industry-leading capabilities in mission-critical cleanroom and ultra-clean air filtration solutions.
Airflotek’s customized fan filter units (“FFUs”), used in advanced cleanroom environments, deliver high efficiency particulate air (“HEPA”) and ultra-low particulate air (“ULPA”) filtration to ensure the stringent particle control required to protect sensitive processes meets demanding regulatory standards and reduces contamination-related risks. Airflotek designs tailored filtration solutions, optimizing airflow uniformity, energy efficiency, and overall performance for unique facility layouts and cleanliness classifications. Its portfolio also includes a comprehensive suite of other cleanroom infrastructure solutions.
These acquisitions represent the fifth and sixth completed by Cleanova since 2023 and follow the strategic and transformative addition of Micronics Engineered Filtration Group in 2025.
Chris Cummins, Chief Executive Officer of Cleanova, remarked, “Airflotek and TES-Clean Air Systems are outstanding strategic fits for Cleanova. Their expertise in custom FFUs, HEPA/ULPA air filtration, and controlled environment solutions extends our capabilities into semiconductor manufacturing, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and other highly regulated industries where ultra-clean air quality is essential. Together, they strengthen Cleanova’s position as the world’s leading independent industrial filtration platform, delivering an even broader suite of high-performance, mission-critical solutions for our customers.”
Alan Schlesinger, President of Airflotek, and Jim Harris, Founder of TES-Clean Air Systems, commented, “We are incredibly proud to be joining Cleanova, a company that shares our commitment to technical excellence, customer partnership, and mission-critical filtration performance. Our team is excited to contribute to Cleanova’s growth journey and to continue supporting customers with the same responsiveness, reliability, and expertise they have come to expect from Airflotek and TES-Clean Air Systems.”
