Airstausâ story is one of family legacy, Canadian ingenuity, and a bold vision to strengthen local manufacturing. It was founded by Airgenuity, a family-run business with 20 years of experience designing and building air control systems for critical lab facilities across Canada.
By 2018, it became clear that the Canadian lab construction market needed a stronger local solution for air valves. Clients demanded assurance that their critical infrastructure components werenât tied to jurisdictions with weaker cyber protections. At the same time, global supply chains grew increasingly unreliable. From pandemic disruptions to geopolitical conflicts and transportation breakdowns, offshore production became a risky liability. Determined to offer a secure, stable alternative, Airgenuity launched Airstausâmanufacturing high-quality air valves right here in Canada.
From day one, local production was a core principle. Airstaus prioritized Canadian-made parts wherever possible, while sourcing specialized foreign components only when necessary. Most importantly, they adhered to Canadaâs rigorous quality and data security and residency standards. With a long-term vision of creating a 100% Canadian-made product, Airstaus continues to build partnerships with local suppliers. By manufacturing in Ontario, they ensure precision, reliability, and supply chain stability, while creating jobs and boosting the local economy. Their commitment to sustainability also shapes their operationsâleveraging Canadaâs clean energy grid to reduce the embedded carbon footprint of their products.
Today, Airstaus stands as a symbol of Canadian innovation and craftsmanship. Built on a foundation of family values and industry expertise, the company continues to growâdelivering world-class air valves that reflect the strength, reliability, and innovation of Canadian manufacturing. With every product, they honor their roots while shaping a stronger, more self-reliant future for the industry.
