Sy-Klone Celebrates 40 Years of Clean Air Innovation

Sy-Klone® (or “Company”), a global leader in advanced clean air technology for a variety of industrial and mobile applications, is celebrating its 40th anniversary, marking four decades of innovation, manufacturing, and engineering excellence.

A Commitment to Quality

Since its founding in 1986, the Company has been awarded in excess of 100 patents globally. From pioneering engine precleaning technology to powered, high-efficiency air filtration systems, Sy-Klone’s solutions are engineered to perform in the world’s most demanding environments.

Sy-Klone’s portfolio includes VORTEX® engine precleaners, RESPA® air quality systems, RESPA Advisor® real-time monitoring, and industry-leading RadialSHIELD® air filters. These proprietary technologies provide customers with scalable clean air solutions for operator safety, engine efficiency, and enclosure protection.

RESPA air quality systems are engineered for operator safety with standalone solutions and fully-integrated systems for layered protection against respirable dust (PM10), ultrafine particles, diesel particulate matter, hazardous fumes, and harmful airborne contaminants. For example, Sy-Klone’s RESPA-CF2 is designed to ensure cab and enclosure air quality through a proprietary combination of effective precleaning, advanced powered filtration, and positive pressurization; while the RESPA Pure recirculation system provides a compact option for light-duty, mobile, and control room applications where traditional heavy-equipment cab air systems may not fit.

RESPA solutions can be configured to conform to the requirements of global cab air quality standards, including ISO 23875.

Engineering Clean Air Into the Equipment

OEM collaboration is a cornerstone of Sy-Klone’s business, with decades-long relationships with many of the world’s leading equipment manufacturers.

Sy-Klone works directly with OEM engineering teams to integrate clean air solutions into new equipment platforms, promoting operator and engine protection directly off the assembly line. The Company’s aftermarket team works alongside distributors, OEM dealers, and fleet operators to solve industrial dust problems for existing machines. This combination allows Sy-Klone to support its customers throughout the equipment lifecycle.

Expanding Clean Air Into New Applications

Driven by real-world customer challenges, the Company has expanded its use of RESPA technology to protect critical components, sensitive electronics, and other enclosures across power generation, telecommunications, data centers, and specialized installations.

More Than Technology

Sy-Klone continues to invest in training, education, and industry awareness on the risks associated with prolonged worker exposure to respirable particulates and other airborne contaminants.

Through collaboration with OEM engineering teams, industrial hygienists, and safety professionals, Sy-Klone is working to help organizations better understand air quality, evaluate their operating environments, and implement effective clean air solutions.

For 40 years, one principle has remained central to Sy-Klone: clean air matters — to the equipment, to the operation and, most importantly, to the people doing the work.
