Explorair was a German manufacturer of aircraft, initially located in Ebringen, within the Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald district of Baden-Württemberg, and subsequently operating from Lörrach in the same federal state. Founded by Mathias Mauch, the firm focused on developing and producing ready-to-fly powered parachutes and ultralight trikes designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles regulations as well as the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight standards.
The enterprise appears to have been established around 2002 and ceased operations by 2004.
Among its products was the Explorair Relax MV, a unique single-seat powered parachute that could be transformed into an ultralight trike by replacing the parachute wing with a hang glider wing.
