What is Aer-flo?
Founded in 1981, Aer-flo, Inc. initially focused on producing tarps and covers for Florida's trucking and agriculture sectors. Over the decades, the company has strategically expanded its product lines and market reach. By introducing high-quality products like the Tough Guy® Turbidity Barriers in 1990, Aer-flo became the world's largest producer of these erosion and sediment containment solutions, distributed through a robust network of construction supply distributors. In 2004, Aer-flo innovated further by entering the sports cover market with its patented Wind Weighted® Baseball Tarps, simplifying field maintenance for various levels of baseball. This expansion continued with a broad range of sports products for baseball, softball, football, soccer, track & field, golf, and tennis, all developed by listening to the needs of professionals in these fields. Aer-flo's commitment to quality manufacturing in Bradenton, Florida, and Anniston, Alabama, has led to its products being adopted by major professional sports leagues including MLB, NFL, and MLS, and recognized as the Official Tennis Windscreen of the United States Professional Tennis Association.
