The History of Sullair

ES rotors

An industry leader since 1965, Sullair uses its expertise to provide superior compressed air solutions.

An early model Sullair compressor

In 1968, after establishing itself in markets that use portable compressors, Sullair introduced stationary screw compressors for the industrial market. Later, responding to market need for clean air for specialized applications, Sullair developed compressed air contaminant-removal systems.

Also in response to customer need, Sullair developed a line of proprietary compressor fluids and related products. Sullair has also utilized its rotary screw expertise to produce high efficiency tandem compressors, encapsulated compressors, vacuum systems and air tools.

In 1984, Sullair became a subsidiary of Sundstrand Corporation, a global manufacturer of aerospace and industrial products. Sullair benefits from Sundstrand’s strong leadership, outstanding resources and commitment to quality. Today, Sullair continues to grow as a leader in screw compression technology.
