RedDOT Corporation Rebrands Offroad Arctic as RedDOT Powersports, Uniting UTV Thermal Management Solutions Under Iconic 60-Year Brand 

The powersports climate system formerly known as Offroad Arctic joins RedDOT Recreation, backed by six decades of heavy-duty engineering expertise

PUYALLUP, Wash., Sept. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RedDOT Corporation today announced RedDOT Powersports as the new name of its consumer UTV climate system line, marking a full rebrand from Offroad Arctic to formally align its powersports products under the RedDOT banner.

The rebrand takes effect immediately, with updates launching at reddot.red/powersports. All existing Offroad Arctic products, warranties, and dealer relationships remain fully intact.

“RedDOT has been building thermal management solutions for heavy-duty vehicles for 60 years,” said John Beering, CEO of RedDOT Corporation. “The acquisition of ICS and the Offroad Arctic rebrand are part of the same story: we’re bringing the full scope of what RedDOT does under one roof, so our customers, whether they're outfitting a UTV or developing rugged construction vehicles from the ground up, know exactly who they're working with. RedDOT Powersports is that commitment made visible.”

Offroad Arctic was introduced by RedDOT Corporation as the industry’s first aftermarket A/C system designed specifically for UTVs and side-by-sides. Built on RedDOT’s proven climate engineering platform, the product line quickly expanded to include the Hurricane Roof Fan and a growing range of plug-and-play compatible systems for Polaris Ranger, Polaris RZR, and Bobcat models—and coming soon, the Polaris RZR Pro XP.

Today, RedDOT Powersports offers:

• The UTV A/C kit, the first air conditioning kit engineered specifically for UTVs and side-by-sides.
• The Hurricane Roof Fan, built to handle tough environments on the trail, at work, or anywhere in between.
• The UTV Heater, which delivers consistent, high-output heat in the harshest environments, designed for serious off-roaders and winter workers.
• The UTV Drive System, a patented, high-performance accessory kit that delivers reliable energy to power air conditioning, alternators, electric compressors, and more, solving the limitations of stock magneto power in side-by-sides.
• The Alternator Power Kit, featuring a belt-driven system with a precision-engineered tensioner, which maintains optimal tension to prevent slippage and maximize belt life.
  
  

The transition to RedDOT Powersports reflects the brand’s natural evolution: a product that was always built to RedDOT standards now carries the RedDOT name. As part of RedDOT Recreation—RedDOT Corporation’s vertical for outdoor and recreational climate applications—RedDOT Powersports joins a family of products designed for the full range of outdoor environments.

RedDOT Corporation is a 100% employee-owned manufacturer of heavy-duty thermal management solutions, with over 60 years of engineering and innovation across construction, agriculture, military, and emerging markets including UTVs, EVs, and commercial applications.
