konfAir a/s was established in 1972 by Lise and Erik Alstrup in the stable buildings at their home in Nøvling under the name “KONF-AIR”. For the first two years, we manufactured pneumatic air stackers for the textile industry and in 1974 we established a long-term and close collaboration with the German needle felt manufacturer BWF. This was the beginning of the production of filter bags.
In 1985, "KONF-AIR" was changed from being a sole proprietorship to being a private limited company under the name "KONF-AIR Miljøfiltre Vildbjerg ApS".
We spent the first 34 years in the old stable buildings, where we slowly started an expansion of the business. In 1996, a generational shift came, when Erik's son Christian Alstrup took over the family business. In 2000, we expanded our production with a new building in Vildbjerg and at the same time we started a production in Lithuania.
In 2006, “konfAir a/s”, as we know it today, was founded and at the same time we moved the Danish location to our current premises in Tjørring, so that our total production area today is more than 6,000 sqm.
Although a lot has happened since 1972, when Lise and Erik Alstrup started konfAir, the basic DNA is the same. We still have focus on our customers and consider ourselves as a skilled and flexible partner for both our customers as well as our suppliers.
