Air compressors in Scotland

Scotland's industry is spread across very different places: the Central Belt between Glasgow and Edinburgh with its engineering firms, food producers and business parks, Aberdeen and the North East with the energy supply chain, Dundee and Perth with food processing and manufacturing, and the Highlands with distilleries, sawmills and fabrication yards. Whisky distilleries and bottling plants, fish and food processors, marine engineers, quarries and vehicle workshops all depend on compressed air for valves, tools, packaging and blowing off.

Buying a screw compressor in Scotland

For a site that needs air through most of the shift, 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, with the S 220 PM using a permanent magnet motor and variable speed for demand that varies. The K series 4-in-1 combines the compressor, receiver, refrigerated dryer and filtration in one unit, so the air reaches your tools dry. For yards and sites, the M series mobile compressors move with the team.

Prices are published on every product page. For a specific project, request a quote: we recommend the model, pressure and accessories that suit your real air use.

Compressed air in Scottish businesses

Scotland's industry stretches from offshore oil and gas and renewables around Aberdeen and the Moray Firth to whisky distilling in Speyside and Islay, food and drink, shipbuilding on the Clyde, electronics and engineering in the Central Belt, and forestry and sawmills in the Borders and the Highlands. In a distillery, compressed air drives bottling, valves and cask handling; in a fabrication yard, blasting, painting and heavy tools; in a sawmill, cylinders and blow-off.

Installation and maintenance

Our technicians and dealers in the UK install and commission your compressor, carry out servicing and handle repairs in Scotland. The first service is at 500 hours, then every 1,500 hours, with the service kits for your model.
