Vertiv, the business formerly known as Emerson Network Power, in February officially launched under its new branding in South Africa.
The global provider of mission-critical infrastructure technologies for vital applications in data centers, communication networks, and commercial and industrial environments is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio (USA), has more than 20,000 employees and 28 manufacturing and assembly facilities worldwide.
Vertiv will continue to build on the broad portfolio of product and service offerings for power, thermal and IT management capabilities it previously offered as Emerson Network Power, including its industry-leading flagship brands ASCO, Chloride, Liebert, NetSure and Trellis.
Backed by over 255 service centers worldwide, with over 3 000 service field engineers and more than 400 technical support/response people, Vertiv is able to support customers wherever they are across the globe.
"We have been in South Africa for many years and as Vertiv we will continue to support the country's evolving needs in IT and digital infrastructure," added Pierre Havenga, managing director of Vertiv in Middle East and Africa.
"South Africa is a key country for Vertiv, as it serves as the hub through which products, pre-sales and after sales services flow for the entire sub-Sahara Africa region, and through which all South and East Africa transactions are processed, including the South African Development Community (SADC) for a total of 25 countries," Havenga concluded.
Vertiv designs, builds and services critical infrastructure that enables vital applications for data centers, communication networks and commercial and industrial facilities. Formerly Emerson Network Power, Vertiv supports today's growing mobile and cloud computing markets with a portfolio of power, thermal and infrastructure management solutions including the ASCO, Chloride, Liebert, NetSure and Trellis brands.
