Screw compressor hire in Scotland
Compressor hire in Scotland: screw compressors from 5.5 to 132 kW, from £15 excl. VAT per kW per week, installed by our UK technicians and dealers, maintenance included, no minimum term.
Across Scotland, a hired screw compressor usually covers a defined job: a distillery shutdown before the new season, a fabrication contract for an offshore or wind project in Aberdeenshire, a food plant in Lanarkshire replacing its compressor room, or a refit in a yard on the Clyde. Hiring gives you the air for the length of the job without buying a machine.

- no minimum term: you return the machine when the job ends.

When businesses in Scotland hire a compressor
In Scotland, hire supports offshore and renewables fabrication yards during blasting and painting work, distilleries and bottling plants during peak production, shipyards on the Clyde and sawmills when a compressor fails. Construction sites hire for a few weeks. Hire is flexible, with maintenance included.
Piston compressor hire in Scotland
From Glasgow to Inverness, many Scottish workshops only need extra air for a while: a garage taking on more work, a fabrication shop with a short contract, a building contractor on a refurbishment job. A hired piston compressor gives you the air for the job without buying a machine.
The E series for hire
We hire out the piston compressors of the E series, from 4 to 11 kW, on receivers from 100 to 320 L.
