Standardair offers a single source for compressor spares with over 8000 product lines in stock for same day despatch.
The company has spares operating in some of the most critical industries including oil refineries, pharmaceutical factories and aerospace research centres.
The vast majority of Standardair's aftermarket offer is made up of parts that are either original parts or matching quality parts, as defined in the new block exemption regulation 1400/2002 of 31/7/2002 of the European Commission.
One example of how the company can help is with Compair products.
Compair Aftermarket Division recently issued new pricing for compressor spare parts - some with significant increases.
(For example a Cyclon manifold block C27345-105-PA has increased from GBP 1342.09 to GBP 3373.33 ).
Today, customers can sometimes purchase a new compressor for less than the cost of a few original parts.
At the same time many parts have been made obsolete and even more available on a "price on application" basis.
The message is clear - from Compair at least - genuine spares are available from a reducing range at often higher prices but in many cases with longer lead times.
Standardair, Europe's largest supplier of aftermarket compressor spares is committed to support all Compair machines until the end of their serviceable life.
Standardair is re-introducing hundreds of new parts every month, with vastly reduced lead times, at prices on average, 60% lower than Compair.
Already well known for its definitive range of aftermarket BroomWade and Hydrovane kits, Standardair has recently launched a Holman range of portable compressor spares to help provide desperately needed support for these machines.
Comprehensive aftermarket offerings are also available for all major brands including Atlas Copco, Ingersoll Rand and HPC.
