Penguin Mascot

Meet PepUp's Mascot, Trip

Trip is more than just a mascot. He represents PepUp’s friendly attitude and commitment to keeping customers comfortable (especially when it’s cold outside)!

Originally, the Pep-Up, Inc. penguin was named Peppy. When Tri Gas & Oil purchased that company and we all rebranded under PepUp, we decided to revamp Peppy, too. We gave him a cute new look, and our employees voted on his new name. Ultimately, they chose a moniker that honors the Tri Gas Family of Companies. Now, Trip is a beloved symbol of our combined workforce!
