Kohler Energy is now Rehlko. The company is entering a new stage, complete with a new name and new look. However, its 100-year-long commitment to providing innovative and reliable energy energy solutions, including power generation, energy storage, and renewable energy technologies for data centers, remains the same.
Rehlko: Kohler Energy Reimagined
The letters that make up the new company name are derived from the same six letters of Kohler. It’s more than a clever name though. The new brand represents a step forward in the company’s journey to continue powering a sustainable future. Additionally, the first two letters, R and E, represent Rehlko’s renewed commitment to delivering excellence in data center backup power around the world.
Rehlko’s new motto, Resilient Together, encapsulates all stakeholders—associates, business partners, customers, vendors and the communities in which the company operates and serve:
- Powering REsilience
- REsolved to innovating and creating
- Building lifetime RElationships
- Continually REimagining the future
“Our company’s new name reflects the reliability, resolve, reinvention, and resilience that have been – and will remain – the hallmarks of this organization in addressing the ever-evolving distributed energy needs of the marketplace,” said Brian Melka, Rehlko chief executive officer.
Strategic Step Forward
Effective in May, global investment firm Platinum Equity became the majority owner of Rehlko. Now, Rehlko joins Platinum Equity’s portfolio of over $48 billion in assets and 50 operating companies serving clients worldwide. With a focus on mergers, acquisitions, and operations, Platinum Equity acquires and manages companies across a wide array of industries, including manufacturing, distribution, transportation and logistics, equipment rental, metals services, technology, and telecommunications. In its 28-year history, the firm has successfully completed more than 450 acquisitions.
