Ultra.air is based in Hilden, Germany, and is an energy and compressed air service specialist that provides components, systems, engineered systems and services to customers throughout Europe.
David Howells, ultra.air Group UK managing director told manufacturingtalk: "We are delighted to bring ultra.air to the UK.
This is an exciting development for the Company that allows us to merge the current energy competencies and market experience we have created in the UK as Opti-Flow, with an established European-wide service and product portfolio".
Howells said that as many users will be aware, energy accounts for almost 80% of the total lifecycle cost of a compressor.
Ultra.air can reduce this energy cost by up to 40% using systematic cost reduction and improvement measures which ultimately help compressed air users maximise their energy savings potential.
"Through the unique ultra.air Group consultation service, energy saving solutions for the entire compressed air supply chain can be generated," said Howells.
"Across Europe we have already assisted many 'blue chip' companies in securing compressed air energy savings, including Ford and Siemens".
Howells concluded: "Over the past three years alone, we have seen the UK manufacturing industry being forced to accept price increases of almost 300%.
Along with our corporate partner E.ON, the ultra.air Group is striving to counteract this trend.".
