A Leading Role in the EV Charging and Natural Gas Infrastructure
Madison, CT – March 28, 2017
Verdek is a pioneer of the
EV charging infrastructure indutry. A long time has gone by since we installed
the first Level 1 stations at City Hall in Houston in 2008 and at the Whole

Headquarters in 2009.

Verdek was founded by Guy Mannino, former CEO of Pirelli Tire North America. “Moving from fast cars and gas guzzlers, to quiet EVs was a big change. We started installing EV charging stations when EV drivers could only acquire conversions kits for the Prius Hybrid cars. It has been a fascinating experience growing with the market and we are proud of our achievements and enjoy the challenge of reaching new goals” says Guy Mannino, CEO of Verdek.
Verdek is now a leader in
the EV charging infrastructure industry with thousands of stations installed
all over the US. The Verdek Technical and
Product Support Department is available 24/7 to support and train Verdek’
customers. Verdek also has developed a nationwide
network of authorized installers that is available to install and service EV
charging stations pre and post installation.
Verdek has a vast range of networked
(remotely controlled) and no-network (plug & charge) EV charging stations. Verdek choses its partners carefully and was
among the first companies to promote Chargepoint, and subsequently added other
charging station product lines from Schneider, Aerovironment, EVoCharge,
Efacec, and Clipper Creek.
In 2011, Verdek opened
its CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) Division adding Galileo CNG compressors (Microbox
and Gigabox) and LNG Mini-Plants (Cryobox) to support the growth of natural gas
in the US.

Hurricane Irene or Sandy.
