American Air Filter (AAF) Reaches 100-year Milestone

Louisville, Ky. (May 3, 2021) A hundred years ago, as the world was recovering from the Spanish flu pandemic, Bill Reed developed and manufactured his original commercial air filter in Louisville, Ky. Today, Reed’s idea has grown into the world’s largest manufacturer of air filtration solutions. In April 2016, American Air Filter Co. Inc., (AAF International), acquired Flanders Corp., to form AAF Flanders. With production, warehousing and distribution facilities in 22 countries across four continents, AAF International, a subsidiary of Daikin Industries, has been influential in improving indoor air quality.
