Cleanova acquires SV Techsol to expand semiconductor FFU offering

The industrial filtration specialist has acquired California-based SV Techsol, a manufacturer of customised fan filter units and environmental control modules for semiconductor manufacturing equipment

Cleanova has acquired SV Techsol, a Silicon Valley-based manufacturer of engineered filtration and environmental control solutions, to expand its offering for semiconductor manufacturing and other ultra-clean applications.

Founded in 1990 by John Dryden, SV Techsol designs and manufactures customised fan filter units (FFUs) and tool-integrated environmental modules for advanced semiconductor equipment manufacturers. 

Its products are used in wafer fabrication, metrology and inspection equipment, where control of particles, temperature, airborne molecular contamination and electrostatic discharge is critical.

The acquisition follows Cleanova’s addition of TES-Clean Air Systems (TES) and Airflotek in December 2025.

Through the combined businesses, Cleanova offers technologies including temperature-controlled FFUs, ionisation and electrostatic discharge systems, and chemical filtration systems for controlling airborne molecular contamination.

SV Techsol, TES and Airflotek will form part of Cleanova.NEXUS, the company’s platform for filtration and environmental control technologies across semiconductor manufacturing, cleanrooms, data centres and other highly controlled environments.

“SV Techsol brings highly specialised engineering expertise that complements the capabilities we have already established through TES and Airflotek,” said Chris Cummins, President and CEO of Cleanova.
