Established in 1998 from a garage in Southern California, VIAIR Corporation has positioned itself as a specialized manufacturer of D.C. oil-less air compressors and air accessories. The company is headquartered in Irvine, California, and has expanded its operations to become a recognized name in mobile pneumatic systems. VIAIR's brand journey began with 50 product SKUs and has since grown substantially, marked by milestones such as establishing its first national distribution network for air suspension in 2000, revolutionizing the off-road and RV markets with powerful tire inflators in 2002, and breaking ground on a new corporate headquarters in 2006.
The business operates as a manufacturer and distributor, serving a diverse client base across multiple sectors. Its primary markets include automotive aftermarket segments like on-road, off-road, and air suspension, where it has been a key player for over two decades. Beyond automotive, VIAIR caters to industrial, agricultural, aerospace, healthcare, and energy markets, working with numerous Fortune 500 companies. Revenue is generated through the sale of its products via a network of distributors and, more recently, through a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform launched in 2024.
VIAIR's product portfolio is extensive, featuring a comprehensive line of 12-volt and 24-volt fractional horsepower air compressors, onboard air systems, portable inflators, air tanks, and various accessories like gauges, hoses, and fittings. These products are engineered for performance and reliability in extreme environments, from arctic climates to deserts. Key product lines include plug-and-play systems, automatic deployment air systems, and industrial-grade compressors. A notable innovation was the introduction of the world's first 100% duty cycle, 200 PSI compressor in its 20th year, underscoring its commitment to performance enhancements. The company also expanded its offerings to the cycling community with a line of tubeless-capable compressor kits.
