About Us

BE STRONG UNDER PRESSURE

Building on a 120 year heritage, Reavell continues to maintain its position at the leading edge of  compressed air technology. The engineers behind the first Scott-Reavell steam engine, patented in 1894, probably wouldn’t recognise our current high pressure compressor range, but they would certainly identify  with our relentless drive for technical excellence and quality customer service. As part of the global Ingersoll Rand High Pressure Division, Reavell continually invests in research and  development, with the goal of continuously improving the reliability and efficiency of our machines.

Our compact compressor solutions are designed to offer market leading, maximum output with minimum  size and weight. They deliver unrivalled performance and peace of mind for customers operating in some of  the world’s most demanding environments - at sea, on land and underground.

YOUR LIFETIME PARTNER

Reavell has built its reputation on ensuring that we actively support our solutions throughout their  lifetimes. Whether it’s through routine maintenance kits, life extending scheduled factory refurbishment  or immediate support whenever required, we pride ourselves on being your reliable lifetime partner. 

Our machines are manufactured to ensure reliability in the most demanding of conditions, guaranteeing that you can rely on your compressor, whatever environment it’s operating in. And when  the time for routine maintenance comes, the Reavell design  allows easy access for maintenance, ensuring downtime is  kept to an absolute minimum. Reavell’s compressor solutions are designed to each client’s  specification at our UK Centre of Excellence. Whatever your  requirement – rest assured, Reavell can handle the pressure:

• Weapon Guidance Systems
• Ballast and Stabilisation Tanks
• Centralised Air Systems
• Breathing Air
• Low-Magnetic Signature  for minesweepers
• Engine Start

A recent decade long study conducted by a major NATO partner resulted in its decision to replace all competitor High Pressure Air Compressors (HPACs) with the Reavell 5417N. 
The purpose of the study, which commenced in 2007, was to calculate the overall running costs of Reavell  HPACs versus a competitor’s machines. 
The independent study indisputably concluded that the competitor’s machines were outperformed by  Reavell’s in terms of reliability and cost of maintenance. 
Because the through-life costs of a Reavell machine are significantly lower, even after the complex  decommissioning process of the rival’s compressors, cost savings to the navy and to taxpayers will be  considerable
