Simplicity Air Ltd. announced the opening of its US manufacturing and Distribution facility in Broadview Heights, Ohio, in January 2026. This expansion enhances the company’s ability to serve American OEM partners with locally manufactured products and responsive supply chain support for all its products, strengthening its presence locally and across various market segments in the Midwest.
U.S. Manufacturing to Overcome Challenges Crossing Borders
The new Ohio facility will manufacture and assemble Simplicity Air’s complete range of mobile HVAC systems, including applications for emergency response, commercial vehicles, material handling, off-road, mining and specialty vehicles. By manufacturing domestically, Simplicity Air provides US OEMs with shorter lead times, consistent quality, and localized service backed by decades of expertise.
"Opening our US manufacturing operation represents a pivotal moment for Simplicity Air and a strong commitment to the American OEM market," said Brian Bassindale, President of Simplicity Air Ltd. "Our customers have consistently told us they need a partner who can deliver innovative climate solutions with the responsiveness and supply chain advantages that come from local manufacturing. This facility enables us to do exactly that while bringing our full spectrum of capabilities—from advanced controls to engine-off solutions and rigorously tested products—directly to US customers."
Proven Quality and Testing
Simplicity Air has advanced engineering capabilities, including CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics), calorimetry, software design, mechanical design, and electronics design. In addition to the investment into its new US facility, Simplicity Air Ltd has also recently installed a calorimeter for testing its products at its Ontario headquarters that increases the level of commitment to testing performance, reliability, and energy consumption of its products. This process simulates extreme environments to confirm reliability, efficiency, and durability before deployment, reinforcing the company’s reputation for dependable, field-tested performance. This along with their vast field experience, instills performance, longevity, and ease of service into its products.
Strategic Growth and Customer Commitment
The new US operation aligns with market trends emphasizing domestic sourcing, reduced emissions, and sustainable vehicle technologies. Simplicity Air’s expansion supports these objectives by offering American-made, high-efficiency mobile HVAC solutions that combine environmental responsibility with proven operational reliability.
