Designed, tested and produced to meet your specific needs.
As a company specialized in air distribution in transportation means, we are able to come up with a unique textile air ducts tailored to any type of vehicle. In-depth knowledge of the field of HVAC, high flexibility in design or savings in transport and installation, these are just some of the benefits of our solution. Read more about our products.
A complex air ducting solution for even air distribution in the interior of railway vehicles. The design of the whole air duct is individual. Both hot and cold air can be distributed using one duct with multiple chambers.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / partially insulated / non-insulated variant
• Low weight, fast installation, uniform air distribution
An air duct of various cross-sections and shapes. They can function as connecting air ducts or as air ducts with air distribution capabilities. Additionally, various outlets and distribution elements can be customized to meet specific needs.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / partially insulated / non-insulated variant
• Low weight, fast installation, easy maintenance
A special air duct for the complicated and confined spaces in the driver‘s cabin. Almost any shape can be produced: outlets, arcs, adapters, etc. The air distribution is designed according to the customer’s needs.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / partially insulated / non-insulated variant
• Low weight, fast installation, space-saving
Fabric expansion joints (compensators / air bellows) are very durable and suitable for outdoor environments. They are part of the vehicle‘s exterior HVAC ducting system, compensate for tolerances, and eliminate noise. They are connected with sealed stainless steel or aluminum flanges equipped with gaskets.

• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / non-insulated variant
• UV-resistant, waterproof, outdoor temperatures resistant
Typically, several mirrored air ducts distribute air from the main ceiling duct. There is a wide range of connection options available. To ensure even air distribution from all branch ducts, regulation is achieved using sewn-in perforated fabric membranes.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / partially insulated / non-insulated variant
• Low weight, fast installation, easy maintenance
Interior flexible compensators come in various shapes and sizes,
from straight designs to complex adapters. They are part of rigid air ducting systems, reducing noise and compensating for neighboring components‘ tolerances and shifts. Available with or without metal flanges.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / non-insulated variant
• Low weight, fast installation, easy maintenance
Lightweight flexible textile air hoses with an internal steel spring spiral. Suitable as interior supply or exhaust ducting in HVAC systems. Perfectly maintains the internal cross-section when bending. These hoses are provided complete with all necessary fixations.

• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / non-insulated variant
• Wide range of diameters and cross sections
A wire-reinforced air duct designed specifically for vehicle joints (gangways). It offers durability and flexibility, maintaining a consistent cross-section even when bent. It is available in single-chamber variants or multi-chamber variants, which can distribute both hot and cold air.
• Fire resistance EN 45545-2 R1/HL2, R1/HL3 & NFPA 130
• Insulated / partially insulated / non-insulated variant
• Excellent flexibility, Low weight, fast installation
• Textile air ducts can reduce vehicle weight by hundreds of kilograms
• Up to 90 % weight savings compared to metal ducting
• Up to 70 % weight savings compared to composite ducting
• AirDIV specialists have extensive expertise in airflow calculations
• Our software allows us to design uniform air distribution in passenger cars
• Various air outlet elements offer flexibility and customization of airflow
• Up to 90% faster installation compared to traditional ducting
• An average of 60% reduction in labor requirements during installation
• These savings result in substantial overall cost savings
For perfect functionality, it is necessary to attach the textile air ducts to the HVAC unit and fix it into the vehicle structure with suitable fixtures. For this purpose, we use sewn-in enlarged strips, which are slid into c-profiles fixed to the structure.
Other smart options include fabric or stainless straps equipped with fasteners, as well as Velcro, Velcro loops, or metal flanges. We always design the attachment system to achieve maximum speed and simplicity during the installation and removal of the textile air duct.
