Piston compressor hire in Leicester

In Leicester, from Belgrave and Abbey Lane to Beaumont Leys and Wigston, many businesses need compressed air for a short period: a large garment order, a shop refit, a busy month in a garage, a compressor waiting for repair. A hired piston compressor provides the air without buying a machine.

Who is it for?

Piston compressor hire in Leicester is aimed at:

• garment makers and textile workshops around Belgrave, Frog Island and Abbey Lane;
• garages, body shops and tyre centres in Wigston, Hamilton and Braunstone;
• shopfitters and joinery workshops for a refit or exhibition build;
• maintenance teams at sites in Beaumont Leys and Thurmaston;
• businesses that want to try a model before buying.

Piston or screw: which to hire?

A piston compressor is the right choice when air is needed now and then: air tools, inflation, blowing off, a few hours a day. For air that must flow all day or over several shifts, hire a screw compressor instead: see screw compressor hire in Leicester. Our article piston vs screw compressor compares the two.

The E series for hire

Our hire fleet uses the E series piston compressors, from 4 to 11 kW with receivers from 100 to 320 L:

• E 40: 4 kW on a 100 L receiver, ready to plug in, for the workshop and the garage.
