Back in 1957, two men from Johnstown, PA began building small air compressors for the construction industry. Known for their dependability, these machines became the most popular portable compressors on the market. Everyone in the industry knew that the little blue compressor from Johnstown was as reliable as the men (and the Western Pennsylvania work ethic) that built them. Fast forward 50 years and you’ll still find dependable blue compressors made at the J-Air factory in Johnstown.

In 2004, while many companies were moving their manufacturing operations out of the country, J-Air partnered with JWF Industries, a Johnstown-based contract manufacturer. JWF was a crucial partner in helping meet the growing demand for the J-Air product line. In 2009 the decision was made to incorporate all of J-Air’s operations into JWF’s main facility. The 800,000 sq. ft. facility offers cutting-edge engineering, over 300 certified welders, tubular and sheet laser cutting, CNC machining, and a state-of-the-art powder coating line.

Though many things have changed since 1957, one thing remains the same… Blue is Best. Period.
