Fad Pennsylvania Inc.

Fad Pennsylvania Inc., doing business as The Titus Co, a small business manufacturer of compressed air, gas equipment, and filtration systems based in Morgantown, Pennsylvania, operates as a 100-percent prime contractor supplying specialized components and equipment to defense logistics and naval supply agencies. The company is a subsidiary of Fluid-Aire Dynamics Inc., a Subchapter S corporation parent based in Illinois, and competes in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations on the majority of awards, though it holds several total small business set-aside purchase orders with the Defense Logistics Agency.

Titus delivers dehydrator modules and manifolds, filter elements (fluid and air), desiccant containers and cartridges, O-rings, drain traps, air purification filter units, nitrogen plants, and compressed air and gas dryers to defense customers. Recent representative prime awards include a $849.7 million definitive contract from Naval Supply Systems Command (awarded August 21, 2024) for 100 air purification filter units with completion scheduled September 8, 2026; a $788 thousand purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command (April 20, 2023) for a SEPA filter unit; a $371.4 thousand purchase order from Naval Supply Systems Command (March 3, 2022) for 82 air purification filter units under Special Emergency Procurement Authority; a $204.5 thousand purchase order from DLA Construction and Equipment (May 23, 2024) for desiccant containers; a $142.8 thousand purchase order from DLA Construction and Equipment (June 23, 2025) for 13 dehydrator modules; and a $64.4 thousand purchase order from Naval Computer and Telecommunications (April 16, 2025, total small business set-aside) for nitrogen plant replacement.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to defense logistics and naval supply. The top five funding agencies account for 89 percent of awards by count and 97 percent of combined potential value. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment leads by far with 200 awards worth $10.7 million combined potential value, followed by Naval Supply Systems Command with 22 awards worth $5.6 million. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime places 159 awards worth $1.9 million, DLA Troop Support Hardware 27 awards worth $859 thousand, and Naval Air Warfare Center 6 awards worth $891 thousand. The vendor serves 16 distinct federal agencies total.

Titus holds three active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, each valued at $250 thousand and reserved for total small business participation, established between December 2020 and January 2022 for the supply of specialized filter elements. These IDCs are the primary parent vehicles documented in recent activity; individual IDV task orders appear on the award list with nominal values. The vendor's activity has remained relatively flat — 23 awards annually in both 2022 and 2023, declining to 12 in 2024, recovering to 15 in 2025, and 5 awards recorded through March 2026. Four awards carrying combined potential value of $1 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure.

Titus's product portfolio concentrates in two primary NAICS categories: Air-Conditioning and Warm Air Heating Equipment and Commercial and Industrial Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing (190 awards) and All Other Miscellaneous General Purpose Machinery Manufacturing (88 awards), with secondary exposure in Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing (28 awards). By PSC code, the vendor's awards cluster heavily in Driers, Dehydrators, and Anhydrators (194 awards), Centrifugals, Separators, and Pressure and Vacuum Filters (119 awards), O-Ring components (24 awards), and Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Components (28 awards). All 487 awards in the source data are prime contracts or IDVs; the vendor does not appear as a documented federal subcontractor in this portfolio.

Wherever compressed air is used, The Titus Company provides superior expertise and the capability to serve a wide range of needs from Fortune 500 companies like DuPont and Air Products and Chemicals, to local businesses like Amish Country Gazebos and RV Industries. We are also the largest supplier of air dryers to the United States Navy, the Royal Australian Navy and the Royal Navy of the United Arab Emirates.
