Our Story

General Compression (GCL) is 100% New Zealand owned and operated. GCL staff bring many years of specialised industry experience to the market place. GCL has established a very strong brand and is recognised as a worthy partner by some of New Zealand’s most prestigious corporations. This recognition of brand and expertise has been established following the successful completion of a number of demanding and very technical projects.

GCL is the only New Zealand distributor for the internationally recognised brand CompAir which is part of the global giant Gardner Denver Inc. GCL is very proud to have been the successful tenderer to represent the GD/CompAir line of products.

Whilst GCL primarily supplies the CompAir brand, Gardner Denver’s products are expansive and well known to the GCL people. With such an expansive range of products and expertise GCL’s support extends deep into the Industrial compressed air and gas markets both on and off shore.

GCL supports the market from multiple locations around New Zealand both directly through our five own branches and also via a well-supported distribution network. Field service and on site repairs along with full overhaul capability are available on a 24/7/365 basis.

Our Happy Customers Gave Us An Average Of 5/5 Stars

Your generosity is hugely appreciated and it’s people like you, doing little things like this that help keep our small schools afloat. So thank you so much for all of your help – I can’t wait to pop outside (once the sun gets through the fog) and blow up the tyres pf our sports gear trolley!!!
