Corporate rebranding year
In 2021, the company rebranded as Woods Air Movement after joining FläktGroup in 2016.
  • In the 1940s it pioneered the world’s first axial aerofoil-bladed fan, inspired by aircraft wing design.
  • Over the decades it has grown through acquisitions and innovation, joining FläktGroup in 2016 and rebranding as Woods Air Movement in 2021.
  • Major projects include smoke and ventilation systems for buildings, tunnels, parking garages, oil & gas facilities, marine installations and industrial processes.
  • Unusual facts: in the 1950s the factory employed women winders because their fingers were better suited to winding motors, and they built flame-proof motors as early as the 1920s.
