LaPlante Compressor engineering started with a clear mission; "Develop an industry leading series of air compressors, specifically for rugged commercial and industrial duty use". This led to the design of high quality, large bore single stage compressor pumps, and the continued manufacturing of the time proven Kellogg American two stage compressor pumps. The Kellogg compressor pump design is the most robust on the market today, with features such as ring oil lubrication, which provides much more reliable lubrication than a simple splash lube system. Head and centrifugal unloaders, large diameter, fully finned intercoolers, Swedish steel, cushioned disc valves, and all iron construction, as opposed to aluminum used in cheaper competitive units, have made the Kellogg American pump the industry leader for decades.

Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility produces air compressors using multiple precision CNC machining centers. The same facility also produces Omni Gear gearboxes for various industries, world-wide. Unlike the competition, our quality control group monitors all facets of manufacturing, from raw castings to finished product. This allows LaPlante to assure our customers the finest product possible. Heavy duty, fully loaded machines deserve the best in component manufacturing, assembly, and testing to assure a long lasting product. It is our mission to provide excellence in product design, engineering, and manufacturing and a total commitment to our customers by providing a product they will be proud to own.
