Air Products and Controls Inc. was founded in 1982 as a distributor for dampers and louvers used in HVAC systems. In 1984, Robert E. Skaggs joined the company, and the business was expanded to manufacturing duct smoke detectors.

Then, in 1988, the product offerings were again enhanced with the addition of multi-voltage control relays. In March 1999 the company was sold to Halma p.l.c., an English conglomerate of more than 45 companies located across the globe. Halma, a public company traded on the London Exchange, has a strong growth history, fueled largely by key acquisitions of successful businesses. Air Products' addition to the Halma Fire Division has enhanced our business by helping develop key synergies with divisional sister companies, Apollo Fire Detectors Ltd. and Fire Fighting Enterprises Ltd.
