Connecting the Future

Developed with comfort, ease of use, security, and sustainability in mind, Somfy’s automation offering gives end-users the power to go connected. The company’s latest seamless solutions are designed to help people make the move to living spaces that are both impactful for humans and entail a reduced impact on nature. 

“Listening to customer feedback, Somfy has continuously evolved to meet industry demand and cement itself as a trusted partner throughout the process, from sales to commissioning to servicing,” says Somfy Oceania’s Managing Director Stephen Eggleton. He confirms that, building on Somfy’s connected solution, Connexoon Window RTS – giving users the freedom to automate daily life with Somfy RTS products – Somfy unveiled a collection of innovations at SuperExpo 2023.

Somfy’s new and streamlined smart shading ecosystem is comprised of Zigbee 3.0 technology and the complementary trio of TaHoma suite tools: TaHoma switch, TaHoma pro and Serv-e-Go. TaHoma switch, the open and scalable connected solution featuring hybrid compatibility with Somfy RTS products and Zigbee 3.0 technology, centralises and controls equipment with ease.

“Going connected equals a simplified life, not just for end users but for installers and manufacturers too and that’s evident through our upcoming launches of TaHoma suite tools and Zigbee 3.0 technology,” says Eggleton.

“We’re taking massive leaps forward in shading technology and ever since we pioneered the industry over 50 years ago, the goal was to give people added convenience in their lives.

“With the addition of our latest technologies, comfort is the name of the game – from manufacturer to installer to end user, Somfy’s comfort-driven ecosystem is built for everyone.”
