Air compressors in Leicester

Leicester grew on hosiery, knitwear and footwear, and textiles are still made in the city alongside food, printing and engineering. Belgrave and the streets around Frog Island and Abbey Lane keep garment makers, dyers and small factories. Beaumont Leys and Thurmaston in the north, and Braunstone Frith in the west, host manufacturers, food producers and distribution sites, while Meridian Business Park and Enderby near junction 21 of the M1 gather warehousing and light industry. Wigston and Hamilton complete the picture with engineering workshops, garages and trade counters. Compressed air runs their sewing and pressing equipment, packing machines, presses and spray guns, and a compressor that stops halts the line.

Buying a screw compressor in Leicester

If the air supply has to run most of the day, a screw compressor is the right choice: it compresses continuously and is built for long running hours. Our S series runs from 5.5 to 132 kW, and the S 220 PM uses a permanent magnet motor and variable speed when demand varies between orders. The K series 4-in-1 brings the compressor, receiver, refrigerated dryer and filtration together, so garment presses and food lines get dry, clean air.

For a garage or a small workshop with intermittent use, a 7.5 kW piston compressor from the E series is often enough. Prices excl. VAT are published on every product page. For a specific project, request a quote: we suggest the model, pressure and accessories that fit your real air demand.
