Plastic fans for industrial environments

A plastic fan is the ideal choice when dealing with humid, corrosive, or chemically contaminated airflows. Unlike metal fans, plastic versions are often more resistant to acids, alkalis, and other aggressive substances. That makes them perfect for use in:

Chemical processing systems
Laboratories and cleanrooms
Water and wastewater treatment
Agricultural environments (e.g. manure gases)
Food processing and storage
High-humidity areas
Biogas installations

We offer a wide range of plastic fans, including roof fans, inline duct fans, and centrifugal models made from high-quality materials such as PE, PP (polypropylene), and PVC. For ATEX applications, we also supply antistatic versions like PE-el and PP-el. Based on your situation, we’ll advise you on the right combination of material, capacity, airflow direction, and mounting type.

Why choose a plastic fan?

Corrosion-resistant: Withstands chemical vapors, acids, and salts
Lightweight: Easy to install, even in hard-to-reach areas
Durable: Long service life, even in demanding industrial use
Flexible: Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, wall- or duct-mounted

Same fan, but a different application?

In addition to our plastic fans, these types are also available in other materials, such as coated steel or stainless steel (RVS). This allows you to use the same fan design, but tailored to specific conditions, environments, or applications.

We offer a range of industrial fan alternatives, including:

Axial fans: for high air volume at low pressure, suitable for general ventilation
Centrifugal fans: for higher pressure and ducted applications
ATEX fans: for potentially explosive environments and hazardous areas
Roof fans: for efficient exhaust ventilation through rooftops

Whether you are searching for a complete fan solution or just a single fan, our experts can help you select the right option for your project.

Frequently asked questions about plastic fans

When should I choose a plastic fan over a metal one?

Plastic fans are the better choice when the air contains aggressive or corrosive elements, such as acid or chemical vapors. In these cases, plastic often provides better reliability and a longer service life than steel.

What materials are plastic fans made of?

Common materials include PE, PP (polypropylene), and PVC, depending on the chemical load and operating temperature. We’re happy to help you select the right material for your application.

Are plastic fans suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, many plastic fans can be installed outdoors, provided they are properly protected against UV radiation and weather. Let us advise you on the right version.

Do you offer custom-made plastic fans?

Absolutely. We can supply fans with custom dimensions, flanges, motor specs, or coatings — all tailored to your requirements.

Do you offer ATEX-rated plastic fans?

Yes, ATEX-certified models are available. Contact us to find out which option best fits your specifications.

Are accessories available for plastic fans?

Yes, we supply various plastic accessories such as dampers, transitions, silencers, and deflector hoods.

Your industrial fan specialist since 1999

Since 1999, we have been helping companies find the right industrial fan for their application. Over the years, we have sold and delivered more than 175,000 fans to customers in more than 71 countries. With a range of over 30,000 products, we offer a wide variety of ventilation solutions.
