In the heart of Oneida County, a remarkable story of innovation, community integration, and economic development unfolds with AirPro Fan & Blower Company, a leading name in the manufacturing of custom industrial fans, blowers, and air handling equipment. Founded in 2002, right here in Rhinelander, AirPro has not only expanded its operational footprint within our community but has also showcased an unparalleled commitment to its growth and prosperity.

A Testament to Local Dedication and Global Excellence

AirPro’s journey is a testament to the symbiotic relationship between a corporation and its community. Beyond its substantial role in the global market, serving customers worldwide with customized air movement solutions, AirPro has demonstrated a profound dedication to Rhinelander. The company’s initiative to sponsor a community mural on its Sutliff Avenue property visibly embodies this pride and commitment.

With multiple expansions since its inception, AirPro has continually invested in the local economy, creating jobs, and fostering a work environment that prioritizes the safety and well-being of its employees. Noteworthy is their contribution to a large-scale project for Expera Specialty Solutions (Ahlstrom), where they developed a custom blower vital for a $15 Million silicon coater expansion, underlining their capability and sophistication in manufacturing.
