ACI's Brief History:
- From the very beginning in 1969 every one of ACI's products has been designed, developed and built in its factory and everything originates from the company's own designs.
- Throughout our history we have made a significant commitment to research and development (R&D), with around 15% of annual sales invested in R&D and engineering. This has enabled the company to diversify into many different markets from industrial, food and beverage and medical areas.
- Currently the company has more than 50 employees split between its headquarters in Axminster, Devon and its USA subsidiary in Windsor, Maine which has been established primarily to serve Canada, USA and Mexico territories.
- We have a strong global presence, with 15 Distributors representing us in 34 countries and some 45% of our sales are made outside the UK.

ACI's Products:
- Our products include centrifugal, radial and axial fans; air knife drying systems; and personnel de-dusting equipment.
- Our innovative DRI-Line Series for drying cans and bottles prior to labelling and packaging processes are virtually an industry standard, from basic blower / air knife systems, through to fully enclosed stainless steel enclosures fitted with either JetPlates or Can Drying Tunnels.
- All prototype fans are tested and rated to BS848 Part 1 and proven designs are also regularly monitored through systematic audit testing and re-assessment to ensure compliance with our registration to BS EN ISO 9001 and current industry, national and international standards and legislation.
- All ACI fans carry the CE Mark and where appropriate can be supplied with ATEX certification for use in explosion hazard areas.
- Providing the very highest quality product and customer service has always been of prime importance and a key factor maintaining ACI's position at the forefront of fan technology.
