Ultra Controlo compressed air, gas and vacuum systems run essential processes in every major industrial sector, from metallurgy to pharmaceuticals and from agriculture to petrochemicals. We design, assemble and test our own lines in Portugal, and distribute and service five partner brands.
Every line asks for something different: air with no oil, air with no water, steady pressure, vacuum, or a liquid moved at the right pressure. These are the answers we supply.
Gardner Denver oil-free screw compressors give contaminant-free air, ISO Class 0 (ISO 8573-1, Compressed air: contaminants and purity classes), for pharmaceutical and food production.
Gardner DenverThe ULTRASCREW VSD drive matches compressor speed to the real demand of the network, cutting load and unload cycles, wasted energy and starting current peaks.
ULTRASCREW rangeULTRASEC refrigerated dryers hold a stable +3 °C pressure dew point; ULTRADRY adsorption dryers go down to −70 °C.
DryersULTRAK removes oil vapour from compressed air to below 0.003 mg/m³, for food, electronics, chemicals, plastics and paint.
Air treatment unitsReceivers from 200 to 10,000 litres, vertical or horizontal, for working pressures of 11 to 48 bar, with CE/PED (CE marking under the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU) certification and individual testing.

Nine sectors and what we supply to each. Every card opens the industry page.
Blowing, moulding and controlled cooling need clean, dry air at constant pressure. We supply Gardner Denver oil-free compressors and air treatment chains for bottle, jar, technical glass and industrial ceramics lines.
Instrument gas, air for pneumatic valves and process control in critical environments: redundant high-pressure systems, with full technical traceability and documentation ready for audit.
Oxygenation of nutrient solutions in hydroponics, pneumatic automation, climate control and fertigation, with air and oxygen solutions sized for continuous operation.
Gardner Denver oil-free compressors give ISO Class 0 air for food; ULTRADRY and ULTRAK keep water and oil vapour out of the line.
Oil-free, ISO Class 0 air from Gardner Denver screw compressors, with ULTRADRY adsorption drying where residual moisture must be tightly controlled.
For metallurgy, rolling and metal processing: ULTRASEC refrigerated dryers, and air receivers sized to stabilise the network and reduce load and unload cycles.
Gardner Denver lubricated screw compressors for continuous duty, with ULTRASEC dryers and ULTRAK activated carbon towers.
Very dry air, with the oil vapour taken out: ULTRADRY adsorption dryers and ULTRAK activated carbon towers.

More than 40, from metallurgy to pharmaceuticals and from agriculture to petrochemicals, according to the Ultra Controlo Industrial 2026 catalogue. It names glass and ceramics, petrochemicals and energy, agriculture and greenhouses, and the food, pharmaceutical and automotive industries.
Both. Ultra Controlo is a Portuguese manufacturer of its own compressed air lines (ULTRASCREW compressors, ULTRASEC and ULTRADRY dryers and ULTRAK carbon towers) and distributes and services five partner brands in Portugal: Gardner Denver, Elmo Rietschle, Thomas, Speck Pumpen (Circutec) and Speck Triplex.
The ULTRASCREW is an oil-injected rotary screw compressor. For ISO Class 0 oil-free air, the Industrial 2026 catalogue lists oil-free screw compressors from the partner brand Gardner Denver, for pharmaceutical and food production.
Not necessarily. The Compressed Air Challenge Fact Sheet #1 (May 2026) says lubricant-free air can also be produced with lubricant-injected compressors that have additional separation and filtration equipment, weighed against the risk and cost of product contamination.
Yes. Ultra Controlo services its five partner brands through UltraCare: preventive maintenance, corrective assistance, original spare parts and emergency support for Ultra Controlo equipment and its partner brands, by its own team, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
