Today,
most people involved in the HVAC industry around the world are familiar
with Nailor Industries Inc. and our comprehensive line of commercial
Air Distribution and Air Control products. However, many may not know
that the company had humble beginnings.
The
company commenced operations in 1971 at a small facility in Toronto,
Canada manufacturing a single air control device – the curtain fire
damper. Michael T. Nailor (President and CEO) started with the
founding principle that the company would be customer focused and service
orientated, dedicated to fulfilling the need for high quality, competitively
priced products, delivered on schedule and in a timely manner.
Nailor
management has adhered to the 'Superior Customer Service' philosophy
since the company's inception. As a result, Nailor has been rewarded
with an ever increasing demand for our products that now range from
single blade dampers to fan powered terminal units that exceed industry
standard design and performance specifications.
Today,
the company has nine manufacturing plants totaling over 500,000 square
feet, strategically located in three countries to service North America,
Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific countries and a distribution
network of representatives in most major cities working together to
not only meet, but exceed the expectations of our clients around the
world.
As
a private company, employing a staff of experienced and dedicated professionals,
Nailor Industries is prepared to set new benchmarks for service and
quality as we continue to grow from strength to strength.
