Our Purpose

Elta Fans are the leaders
in sustainable air movement
and air quality solutions

Everything we do and say, every product we develop and distribute, they all have one thing in common. To provide air movement and air quality solutions in the most sustainable way possible.

Our Promise

We’re here to demonstrate that we not only believe in creating industry leading sustainable air movement solutions, but are committed to continuous improvement for our clients and the environment.

By reducing energy, maintenance and up front capital costs, when long term life cycle costs are considered during the design stages of projects, Elta Fans proves time and time again that it leads the way with it’s people, products and services.

Technology that stands the test of time


The Past
For nearly half a century, generations of talented Elta Fans employees worked together to develop one of the world’s largest and most trusted ranges of Sustainable Air Movement products. This has shaped the course of history in the ventilation and air movement industry along the way. The reliable long term performance and increasing efficiency of our impellers has earned it an unrivalled reputation within the global HVAC markets and is increasingly being specified on large scale green or sustainable building projects.

The Present
Currently we are an internationally recognised leader in axial fan and impeller design. Our pioneering technology includes the world’s first adjustable pitch mixed flow impeller. Our impellers are providing air movement and ventilation solutions across a wide range of industries. They are often performing in some of the harshest and most demanding environments. Collectively as a group we are known to be market innovators across five continents. Leading the way with a wide range of Sustainable Air Movement and Indoor Air Quality technologies.

The Future
Our determination to improve efficiency, continual innovation and to expand our range of products for our customers is never ending. Our products and solutions will continue to show their quality, standing the test of time. Future generations of Elta Fans employees will continue to carry out our founder’s purpose and values in enhancing life through air through the ongoing innovation of Sustainable Air Movement technologies.

Team Culture

Beyond structure and systems, any company is a collection of people so unless the culture of the organisation is healthy it cannot ever reach its full potential. Elta Fans is a community where it is every person’s responsibility to uphold the values and take ownership of the culture.

We encourage innovation, transparency and collaboration. Fast communication and innovation has no structure, it is pervasive so individual behaviours or actions which may serve to undermine our culture are challenged through courageous openness.

Our culture and values encourage an environment where any colleague can develop and present their ideas, make things happen and continuously surprise customers with outstanding service and support. We are passionate about encouraging creativity, creating our own intellectual property and challenging the status quo.

We are about creating sustainable environments and it starts with our culture and values, it runs through our DNA. It’s even more pervasive as everyone within the organisation takes ownership by contributing to sustainability through their own actions and innovation.

Sustainably built for life

For us sustainability is not a sideshow, it is at the forefront of our vision and purpose and we can discuss this with great authenticity. It’s what we’ve been doing for nearly half a century.

We have reinvented the axial fan though revolutionary high-efficiency impellers, we build the best fans in the world and we continue to define the future of sustainable air movement with EC technologies, Intelligent Controls and easy to use fan selection programs.

Everything we do and say, every product we develop and distribute, they all have one thing in common. Built to last, designed to perform efficiently, and to provide air movement and air quality solutions in the most sustainable way possible.

That’s why every aspect of our impeller has been designed, manufactures and optimised to last a lifetime. From the highest quality materials, to x-raying every blade for porosity issues, we ensure that our impellers are built to last.

Ethical company with ongoing compliance

In everything we do we act ethically and honestly. This permeates through our group companies worldwide. It is seen in how our employees work, the manner in which we do business with our customers and suppliers we partner with. Our stance on ethical business conduct is simple, we do the right thing with no exceptions.

Elta Fans continuously delivers peace of mind and value to its customers. The performance test data measured within our laboratory is independently checked and accredited not once, but twice, by two different independent international organisations, AMCA and British Standards.

Our axial technology undergoes constant testing, improvement and development. Testing is carried out in strict accordance to ISO, British and AMCA standards. Our Elta Fans laboratory is accredited with AMCA International. Our fans comply to Seismic Performance Requirements NZS 4219:2009

Customers around the world not only trust us because of our people, products and services, they also know they can trust the performance data that we publish because of our proven commitment to our values. If our data says the product will perform in a certain way, that fan will perform without compromise.

Committed to products that reduce the impact on the environment.

Great organisations don’t just drive profits, they lead people. The best change in the course of industries and sometimes our lives in the process. This starts with education.

Products developed by Elta Fans are designed to move air in the most efficient way. They are manufactured to meet or exceed many worldwide energy efficiency standards. Compared to traditional axial impellers the Elta Fans high efficiency impeller can move increased air volumes using less power. We work with designers of green buildings to advise how they can achieve correct ventilation and air quality using smaller, more energy efficient motors. This approach leads to reduced upfront capital costs. Our customers also benefit from significant life cycle savings in energy and carbon emissions for property owners.

The ErP directive is another good example of Elta Fan’s commitment to energy saving technology. With significant investment in products and people, Elta Fans were one of the first fan manufacturers in Europe to comply fully with these stringent energy related regulations. Our team implemented this before the deadlines were set by the European commission.

We strive towards the design and manufacture of increasingly innovative low energy products. Our commitment to the reduction of our impact on the environment combined with our group’s overarching purpose ensures that each day our people and our businesses are always making a positive contribution to protecting our environment.

Product selection software and global technical support

Our product selection program is industry leading and is built to help customers in making fast, accurate and energy efficient fan and silencer selections.

The software creates a seamless and efficient workflow from initial selection and comparison of over 850 different configurations of axial fans accredited to AMCA and British Standards. Clients can also select a wide range of mixed flow fans, roof units, centrifugal fans, controllers and sound attenuators. Using the program you can access project scheduling, advanced data and drawing outputs.

Using the Elta Fans selection program ensures customers choose the right products, based on accurate and independently accredited performance data.

Once a fan is selected, built and installed we are there to support the contractor during commissioning. Fan engineering is in our DNA and we will not be satisfied if an Elta Fans product is not delivering the performance promised in our fan selection program or literature. Customers can rest assured what they identify, select and have delivered are all consistent with their requirements and information given through our selection program.
