About us
With the CAHS altAIRnative GmbH has developed a highly efficient compressed air generation system in combination with economical heat provision and has set itself the goal of revolutionising the provision of compressed air, heating and cooling for industrial customers.
On the one hand, it offers modular CAHSs (compressed air heating systems) developed and manufactured in-house in various output sizes (45 to 300 kW mechanical output and VL temperatures up to 108°C) that are very interesting for the industry. The compressed air is optionally generated and supplied oil-lubricated or oil-free. On the other hand, altAIRnative GmbH integrates these highly innovative components as part of holistic system solutions for its customers. Planning, construction, implementation and integration into existing or yet to be created networks (compressed air, heating or cooling) come from a single source. We achieve payback periods of well under 4 years.
Our performance promise
- Compressed air heating systems specially adapted to your needs
