Acquisition provides direct-fired industrial heating, ventilation, and make-up air systems that complement Modine’s existing Heating and Indoor Air Quality businesses
RACINE, Wis., March 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Modine (NYSE: MOD), a diversified global leader in innovative thermal management technology and solutions, announced today that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire AbsolutAire, a manufacturer of direct-fired heating, ventilation, and make-up air systems. Modine expects the transaction to close April 1, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
“Acquiring AbsolutAire is in line with our strategy to expand our technology portfolio with differentiated solutions to capture opportunities in markets with strong tailwinds,” said Neil Brinker, President and Chief Executive Officer of Modine. “Through this acquisition, we gain another top-tier HVAC offering to serve customers demanding fit-for-purpose and sustainable air management systems.”
AbsolutAire is based in Michigan with 2024 revenue of approximately $25 million. Their direct-fired heating, ventilation, and make-up air systems enable Modine to offer a more comprehensive suite of high-performance air quality solutions. The acquisition, which will be integrated into Modine’s Heating & Schools IAQ product group within the Climate Solutions segment, also gives Modine access to a broader customer base in commercial, industrial, food service, and warehousing applications. These sectors present significant growth opportunities, driven by increasingly stringent requirements for HVAC and air quality management.
