LOUISVILLE, Ky, — A hundred years ago, Bill Reed developed and manufactured his original commercial air filter. Today, Reed’s idea has grown into American Air Filter Co. Inc.

“Until the pandemic, most of us took clean air for granted,” said Nathanial Nance, vice president of Global Research and Development. “We wouldn’t think about the air filtration systems in hospitals, medical offices, schools, and restaurants, and how essential clean air is to our life. At AAF, our staff is particularly proud of our products and knowing our air filter design can contribute to reducing the risk of virus transmission during this current worldwide pandemic.”
