CompAir was a British-German compressor manufacturer (Sidcup/Simmern) that produced marine compressors until approximately 2010. The V-Major Marine series was widely used on British and Northern European vessels. CompAir is now part of Gardner Denver/Ingersoll Rand but has discontinued its marine compressor division. It remains in service on older vessels, with servicing available only through independent workshops.
