About AGI Frost Fans
AGI Frost Fans was founded in 2012 after a devastating Western Cape frost destroyed 29 hectares of table grapes. In response, we developed South Africa’s first locally manufactured, environmentally friendly electric frost fan.
Within four years, our third-generation fan set a new benchmark, delivering coverage of up to 9 hectares and a more sustainable approach to crop protection.
Today, AGI is recognised globally for reliable, energy-efficient frost mitigation. Our offering has evolved into a complete solution — from fixed, mobile, and PTO-driven fans to advanced monitoring systems, sensors, weather stations, and expert consulting — helping growers reduce risk and protect crops with confidence.
