Screw Compressors
Rotary twin-screw compressors for gas compression applications within oil & gas, power and industrial refrigeration.
Rotary twin-screw compressors for gas compression applications within oil & gas, power and industrial refrigeration.
Howden was involved in the original development of rotary twin-screw compressor technology, and supplies OEM compressor packages, as well as bare shaft oil-injected screw compressors to partner packagers. With thousands of installations worldwide, our compressors provide high integrity and low maintenance solutions for liquid chilling, direct refrigeration and gas compression applications.
Howden screw compressor serve customers across a wide variety of applications and industries. See how our compressors impact your world in our video.
We are a specialist manufacturer of twin screw compressors. We supply oil injected bare shaft compressor units to independent packagers worldwide who design and supply gas and refrigeration systems on a local basis.
We have 4 product ranges with the XRV (single walled casing) aimed at refrigeration applications, WRV (double walled casing) addressing gas processes, and specialist M and GTV products suitable for lower volume and high pressure applications respectively.

We have 4 product ranges:
We specialise in the engineering, design and manufacturing of high specification process gas screw compressor systems, based around our range of proven and reliable bare shaft screw compressors.
Our oil-injected screw compressors packages are used within the oil & gas industry for gas processes such as gathering, sour gas handling, re-liquefaction, recycling, cooling and boosting. Within power and industrial settings they boost fuel gas and provide refrigerant compression.
Our innovative modular designs, alternative sourcing and competitive pricing allows us to offer an OEM solution whilst maintaining the highest possible quality standards.

Oil free screw compressors are available in different configurations and materials providing the most compact arrangement, to allow the handling of gases with high levels of liquid, dirt and particulates.
Oil free screw compressors are available in different configurations and materials providing the most compact arrangement and are eminently suitable for use with hazardous or corrosive gases, or where contamination is an issue.
Howden Oil Free Screw Compressor packages are used in processes such as:
The oil free compressor range is able to provide gas compression to up to discharge pressures of 45 bar (653 psi) and 15 bar (217 psi) differential pressure. Available in 10 models the range covers flows up to 92,000 m3/h (54,150 cfm).

Discover peak performance of your screw compressor with Howden Motion oil.
Elevate your screw compressor's efficiency and longevity with Howden Motion High Performance Oil. If your compressor is the heart of your operations, use Howden Motion oil to achieve peak performance.
Why Choose Howden Motion Oil?
Howden Motion is available for a wide range of process gas and refrigeration applications.
World leaders in manufacturing screw compressors.
Today in thousands of applications worldwide, Howden screw compressors provide high integrity, low maintenance solutions for liquid chilling, direct refrigeration and gas compression. Our comprehensive testing standards is key to remaining committed to manufacturing the highest quality compressors in the industry.
The industry’s largest and most versatile range of oil injected and oil free screw compressors are tested in our Renfrew centre, Scotland.
Equipment testing is an essential part of purchasing a Howden Compressor. Many of our customers observe the compressor testing by traveling to Renfrew, from all over the world, to validate the performance and reliability of their product before being shipped.
The introduction of the new test studio allows the customers to witness the test of their equipment remotely, from anywhere in the world. The studio is equipped with live camera feeds and live trending screens showing the data in real-time, directly from the test bed. All of this data can be accessed on any smart device given there is an internet connection. Providing our customers with the option of remote testing eliminates the requirement to travel, reducing time and cost commitments, making the testing experience more convenient.
Utilising state-of-the-art Augmented Reality (AR) technology allows for a truly transformative test experience. The Test Engineer will complete the live test whilst wearing a Microsoft HoloLens device. On the live video feed, the customer will watch the live test and with the addition of AR, the real-time data values will be augmented on top on the equipment. This provides the customer with the live test and the test values, all available on one screen.
