Corroventa's history

Corroventa was founded in 1985

Corroventa was founded by Dr. Knut Claesson. His passion for dehumidification technology and, specifically, for using it to develop new products and techniques within the field of drying damp and water damage was the initial driving force behind the company’s operations.
The first product to be launched caused a breakthrough in the market, because it was simple, extremely user friendly and had a unique patented drying process that significantly reduced the drying time for water damage. Early on, Knut Claesson established a close collaboration with customers around Europe that also affected the development of Corroventa’s products.
