The Cook & Boardman Group Rebrands as CBX Solutions

The Cook & Boardman Group announced its rebrand to CBX Solutions LLC, bringing its network of companies together under a single, unified identity. The change reflects how the business operates today, combining capabilities across commercial openings, specialty products, physical security and systems integration to deliver more coordinated solutions for customers.

In conjunction with the rebrand, the company has launched a new website, CBXSolutions.com, providing customers with streamlined access to CBX Solutions, including eCommerce functionality and customized purchasing portals.

“CBX Solutions builds on the strength of what we’ve created over time,” said David Eisner, CEO, CBX. “Our network has always been our advantage: deep expertise, strong local teams and long-standing customer relationships. This change brings that together under one name, making it easier for customers to access the full scope of what we offer.”

The new name maintains a connection to the company’s history while allowing for a broader expression of its capabilities. The “CB” reflects Cook & Boardman’s legacy, while the “X” represents the many ways the company brings together disciplines, solves complex project needs and supports customers across the full lifecycle of their facilities.

As CBX Solutions, the company will continue to serve customers through its nationwide footprint of over 100 locations, with local teams supported by a more unified structure and clearer market presence.

“This gives us a more direct way to show customers the full picture,” said Carolyn Loudenslager, chief commercial officer, CBX. “We’ve always delivered across multiple areas, and this evolution makes it easier to understand how those capabilities come together to solve problems and support projects from start to finish.”

The transition to CBX Solutions will begin at the corporate level in May 2026, with branch locations adopting the new brand over time. Customers will continue working with the same teams, now supported by a more connected organization.

Platinum Equity acquired a majority interest in Cook & Boardman, now CBX Solutions, in 2023. Littlejohn & Co. LLC remains a significant minority shareholder.
