The name change brings all the Nortek brands, which includes Eaton-Williams, Governair, Huntair, Mammoth, Temtrol, Venmar CES, Ventrol, and Webco, within the Nortek Air Solutions organisation.

“The new name signals the start of an exciting new chapter for our customers, sales representatives and employees,” said Mark DeVincent, president of Nortek Air Solutions. “With all our brands going to market as one company – Nortek Air Solutions – we can leverage our strengths more effectively in our key markets such as data centres, healthcare, offices and education. We can also collaborate on technology innovations and operating efficiencies across the entire organisation.”

“As we have grown as a leading hvac solutions provider, we learned that our large customers wanted to know the financial, geographic and market strength that stands behind our products,”

DeVincent added. “Our new name more closely aligns ourselves with Nortek, a $2.5bn company whose businesses deliver a broad array of air management and technology driven products to customers around the world.”
