On "Systemair Acquires Canadian HVAC Manufacturer Temspec"
Another roll-up in the HVAC supply chain, and this one matters because Systemair just added real manufacturing capacity on the continent instead of just another distributor or service arm. Temspec brings actual production, which means Systemair isn't just consolidating market share—they're building redundancy away from overseas supply lines. For contractors stuck watching lead times and pricing get pinched by global supply chaos, this could eventually mean faster access to units and more competitive pricing if Systemair actually runs dual facilities smart instead of mothballing one. The move signals that the big players think North American manufacturing is worth the capital bet now, which is the only way anything changes on availability.
