These milestones underline the company’s ongoing optimisation of its North American footprint, enhancing its ability to deliver faster, more efficient, and locally responsive support across the continent.
Expanding service in Eastern Canada
Burckhardt Compression has opened a new 1200 m2 regional service centre in Sarnia, Ontario, marking a significant step in expanding its Canadian operations. The new hub offers sales, testing, and maintenance support, complementing the company’s existing facilities in Drumheller and Edmonton. By adding this site in Eastern Canada, Burckhardt Compression aims to reduce shipping times and costs, improve efficiency, and enhance profitability for customers in the region.
The Sarnia hub offers a one-stop shop for maintenance, training, and testing, staffed by local specialists who combine regional knowledge with Burckhardt Compression’s global standards. The expansion responds directly to customer demand and will enable faster onsite services, rapid quotations, and improved project turnaround times across Eastern Canada.
Strengthening capabilities in North-Eastern USA
In the US, Burckhardt Compression has opened a new 11 000 ft3 service centre in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, located just an hour northwest of Philadelphia. The fully equipped and certified facility provides comprehensive maintenance, repair, and upgrade solutions for all types and brands of reciprocating compressors – ranging from valve and packing case refurbishments to full compressor overhauls.
The Pottstown facility provides expert shop and field services, installation and commissioning support, and emissions management capabilities. It also offers specialised valve services for oxygen-rich environments, customised training led by NCCER master trainers, and digital service offerings such as BC ACTIVATE performance assessments.
A growing and integrated North American network
With new service centres in Canada and the US, along with the acquisition of ACT in September 2025, Burckhardt Compression is expanding its North American presence and customer offering. The ACT acquisition adds local manufacturing and service capabilities in the US, strengthening parts availability, enhancing turnaround times, and broadening Burckhardt Compression’s expertise in downstream and industrial gas sectors. Together, the Sarnia and Pottstown facilities – supported by ACT’s regional resources – create a more comprehensive, integrated service network.
