Systemair Strengthens Its Industrial Fan Portfolio with NADI Acquisition
Systemair's Strategic Acquisition of NADI Airtechnics
On July 9, 2025, Systemair AB, a prominent player in the ventilation industry, revealed its plans to acquire NADI Airtechnics Ltd., marking a strategic move aimed at enhancing its industrial fan product lineup and expanding its market share in India. This acquisition is poised to significantly bolster Systemair’s existing portfolio, bringing high-performance industrial fans and specialized solutions into the fold.
NADI Airtechnics Overview
Founded seven decades ago, NADI Airtechnics is recognized as a leading manufacturer in India, specializing in engineered industrial fans. Their product offerings encompass a versatile range, including high-performance centrifugal blowers, axial fans, and specialized cooling solutions for railway applications and carbon capture technologies. The company's operations are based in Chennai, where it employs over 220 staff, with revenues for the fiscal year 2024/25 nearing EUR 13.5 million and boasting an impressive EBIT margin that exceeds Systemair's target of 10 percent.
J B Kamdar, the Managing Director of NADI, expressed pride in the achievements of NADI Airtechnics and emphasized the importance of the partnership with Systemair, which aligns with their values of quality and customer focus. “This transition ensures continuity for our customers and employees while also opening up exciting opportunities for growth and innovation,” he stated.
Enhancing Market Position
According to Systemair's CEO, Roland Kasper, acquiring NADI introduces substantial industrial fan expertise and complements their existing product range. The acquisition is strategically aligned with Systemair’s vision to scale its operations in targeted growth areas, specifically in the Indian industrial and railway segments. Through this acquisition, Systemair aims to leverage NADI's efficient production capabilities and extensive regional know-how to enhance offerings for infrastructure projects.
Kasper highlighted, “NADI provides us with a leading position in India on industrial fans and the railway segment. We can now offer a competitive range of products that cater to both industrial applications and infrastructure projects, bolstering our market presence considerably.”
Future Growth and Expansion
The acquisition lays the groundwork for not only strengthening Systemair's footprint in India but also aims to broaden NADI's sales channels to Europe and the United States, especially for applications in railway and mass rapid transit systems. The synergy between both companies is expected to yield fruitful results, driven by the combination of Systemair's vast network and NADI’s innovative product offerings.
As Systemair embarks on this exciting journey, NADI Airtechnics stands to benefit from Systemair's robust framework while continuing to uphold its legacy of quality and innovation in industrial fans. The transition is expected to be completed during Systemair's second quarter, further reinforcing Systemair's commitment to excellence and leadership in the ventilation industry.
In summary, this acquisition not only enriches Systemair's industrial capabilities but also demonstrates its strategy of growth through strategic partnerships. As markets evolve, Systemair, alongside NADI, is well-positioned to tackle future challenges and opportunities in the industrial fan manufacturing sector, ensuring a leading position in an increasingly competitive landscape.
