A Promise from the Source: At OBAIR no core component will ever substitute aluminum for copper

Recently, the chairman of OBAIR shared an honest and insightful message on social media, which has resonated widely with industry professionals and customers. He pointed out that there are no overstated “high-tech” or “nano-technology” gimmicks in the air conditioning industry. In fact, 70% to 80% of core components — including compressors, condensers, evaporator coils and motors — are made of copper and aluminum.

Supported by its own copper mines and aluminum production facilities, OBAIR maintains strict control over material quality and performance. This vertical integration enables the company to provide customers with reliable products at prices 20% to 30% lower than many competitors in the industry.

The chairman also reminded the market that some abnormally low‑priced air conditioners achieve cost reduction by replacing copper with stainless steel or low‑grade aluminum in key components. Such practices significantly reduce energy efficiency and shorten the service life of the units, ultimately passing higher long‑term costs and operational risks to users.

In line with the commitment of leading brands such as Gree, OBAIR solemnly pledges never to use inferior materials to replace high‑quality copper and aluminum in core components.

Through full‑chain control from ore mining to material manufacturing, OBAIR eliminates unnecessary intermediate costs and delivers real value to customers. With a focus on air purification and a persistent belief in integrity and quality, OBAIR is determined to be a stable and reliable long‑term partner for users, protecting their total cost of ownership with genuine materials and consistent performance.
