The AC compressor is the heart of the vehicle’s air conditioning system. It pressurises the refrigerant gas and ensures low pressure on the suction side, driving the cooling process that maintains a comfortable cabin temperature.
At BORG Automotive Reman, we have one of the widest ranges of remanufactured AC compressors on the European market.

At BORG Automotive Reman, we only remanufacture OE cores, and our AC compressors are remanufactured to meet OE standards.
Pulleys are either replaced or reshaped to precise standards, and all electrical components are thoroughly inspected. Final testing covers performance, leakage, noise, vibration, power use, and clutch strength.
1. Disassembly
Defective AC compressors undergo a complete disassembly process, and parts that cannot be reconditioned are disposed of.
2. Cleaning
Following the disassembly of the AC compressors into individual parts, they are given a thorough cleaning with several cleaning treatments, such as hot water and sandblasting, ultrasonic cleaning, etc.
3. Inspection & sorting
Cleaned components are subject to an intensive inspection to determine if they are in a reusable condition. This is done both visually and with test equipment measuring if the tolerances are within acceptable limits.
4. Reconditioning & replacement
At this stage, reusable parts are reconditioned, e.g. through galvanising and grinding. Parts that were disposed of in the previous stages are replaced with new ones.
5. Reassembly
The remanufactured AC compressors are reassembled.
6. Final testing
Each remanufactured AC compressor undergoes a 100% performance test to ensure that the unit matches OE standards.
All BORG Automotive AC compressors are delivered ready to install. All our AC compressors come pre-filled with oil. Type and amount are shown on the label along with type of refrigerant gas. Fast movers are supplied with O-rings/gaskets.
A remanufactured AC compressor from BORG Automotive Reman saves the environment 76% CO2eq, 72% energy, and 84% of the new materials compared to a newly manufactured AC compressor.*
