Redge is the new Lennox brand in EMEA

FRANCE: Redge is the new brand name for the commercial HVAC activities of the LFB Group, the former Lennox EMEA business. 

The renaming follows the divestiture of US manufacturer Lennox’s EMEA business and its subsequent renaming last month to the LFB Group.

Headquartered in Lyon, the LFB Group will now comprise two specialised brands: Redge for HVAC systems and Friga-Bohn for its refrigeration products.

The Redge name is said to be rooted in the brand’s heritage, an amalgamation of the words red and edge, inspired by the signature red design elements built into many of its HVAC products. 

According to LFB, the new brand “signals both continuity and transformation: a familiar legacy carried forward by forward-thinking innovation”.

The new company branding is now live at www.redgehvac.com.
