Daikin, a Japan-headquartered manufacturer of cooling, heating and refrigerant products, has completed its transition towards one brand.

Since the acquisition of McQuay International in 2006, Daikin had integrated many of its attributes and innovations that had positioned McQuay as a leader among HVAC applied equipment manufacturers, said a statement.

As part of the transition Daikin has changed the legal company name from ‘Daikin McQuay Middle East FZE’ to ‘Daikin Middle East and Africa FZE,’ it said.

Michel Farah, product planning director at Daiking MEA, said: “We are pleased to announce that as of April 1, we completed the transition and started using the Daikin brand for all our products and services.

“This represents a single source for all air conditioning product ranges for residential, commercial and industrial applications. We will continue developing industry leading innovative and energy efficient systems with the highest level of comfort and sustainability designed to meet customer and regulatory requirements.”


Sanjeev Maheshwari, director of after-sales service, added: “At the same time we will continue to provide aftermarket service and parts for all of our McQuay installed products.

Yuji Miyata, chairman, said: “This is a very exciting and important change for our company. Completing the transition of our brand in this region will help us achieve our goals with continuous focus on investments in talent, technology and creating long term relationships with our customers.” - TradeArabia News Service
