Merlin Gerin and Telemecanique become Schneider Electric

The brands you know and trust are changing. During 2009 the brands of Merlin Gerin and Telemecanique will become the single brand Schneider electric. The products will remain the same, and the brand changes will be progressive.

Selection becomes simpler, the guarantee of equipment compatibility is reinforced and the integration of recently acquired technologies is optimised. The products themselves will remain the same.

With a single brand, Schneider Electric confirms its presence as a global specialist in energy management. With a network close to you and fast-responding teams, we commit to help you make the most of your energy, improve your efficiency and ensure the sustainable development of your businesses.

New Packaging

Starting in 2008, all product ranges will start to use the new Schneider Electric packaging, on which the name of the brand and the range are highlighted.

Only the visual design changes. All other specifications will be the same: carton sizes, batches, lot quantities, weights, references…

New Product Marking

Gradually all major product families will be marked “Schneider Electric.”

Only the product marking visual design changes. All the other specifications will remain the same: technical features, function, weight, quality, commercial reference, technical information. From now on, you might see;

Schneider Electric packaging containing products marked Merlin Gerin or Telemecanique
Schneider Electric packaging containing products marked with the Schneider Electric brand. This is the ultimate objective.
The logo found on the sticker on the outside of the product’s packaging is the same as the logo on the product found inside of the box.
