GARDNER DENVER | WORLDWIDE LOCATIONS

Global Expertise
The GD rotary screw compressor range from 2.2 – 500 kW, available in
both variable and fixed speed compression technologies, are designed to
meet the highest requirements which the modern work environment and
machine operators place on them.

The oil-free EnviroAire range from 15 – 315 kW provides high quality and
energy efficient compressed air for use in a wide range of applications. The
totally oil-free design eliminates the issue of contaminated air, reducing the
risk and associated cost of product spoilage and rework.

A modern production system and process demands increasing levels of air

quality. Our complete Air Treatment Range ensures the highest product
quality and efficient operation.

Compressor systems are typically comprised of multiple compressors delivering

air to a common header. The combined capacity of these machines is generally
greater than the maximum site demand. To ensure the system is operated to the
highest levels of efficiency, the GD Connect air management system is essential.
