Company Overview

Tronair is the global leader in manufacturing aircraft Ground Support Equipment (GSE) for all segments of the aviation industry. When the company was originally founded in 1971 by the Dana Corporate Flight Department, the name Danair was chosen. It wasn’t until Danair was sold to Tronco in 1979, that the company received its world-renowned name Tronair.

The first product designed and manufactured by Tronair was the Snap-Bak King Air Towbar. Once towbars were developed, the expansion to Jacks and Hydraulic Power Units came shortly after. Since then, Tronair has been building out its product portfolio and now manufactures equipment to support over 350+ different types of aircraft with over 35 product lines totaling thousands of different pieces of equipment. Tronair emphasizes innovation, reliability, customer focus, and building quality equipment to exceed customers’ expectations. As a result, Tronair is proud to be the trusted and preferred supplier of GSE by aircraft OEMs, fixed based operators, maintenance and repair providers, corporate hangars, commercial airlines, defense contractors and military airbases around the world.

Through acquisition, Tronair’s portfolio has grown to include the Eagle Tugs, EBIS Software, Columbus Jack and Malabar International brands. Tronair is Headquartered in a 300,000 square foot facility at the Eugene F. Kranz Toledo Express Airport (TOL) in Swanton, Ohio.
