About
Keith White Jr.
is president of AirPro Fan & Blower Company, the Rhinelander industrial fan manufacturer that designs and builds heavy-duty centrifugal fans and blowers for customers worldwide. He stepped into the president role on July 1, 2023, as part of a multi-year succession plan that moved founder Keith White Sr. toward retirement as CEO focused on board oversight while co-founder Marty Mathews retained engineering and technology leadership.
AirPro was founded in Rhinelander in 2002 by White Sr., Mathews, and Jim Pierce to create durable local jobs. The company became 100% employee-owned through an ESOP in 2016 rather than sell to outside buyers who might have moved work out of town. Under the family’s leadership the firm has grown to roughly 130 employees across three Rhinelander-area plants after sharp revenue gains in 2021–2023, keeping ISO 9001:2015 certification.
White Jr. has been the primary voice in recent Business News coverage describing double-digit growth, custom engineering for industrial clients, and a commitment to keep the business rooted in the Northwoods. The administrative campus and manufacturing share that Rhinelander story.
