In India, the home automation industry is rapidly growing and evolving more to a converged offering with integration of lighting controls and switchboards, safety security sensors, voice enabled system etc.
Speaking about the launch, Srinivas Shanbhogue, VP Retail Business, said, “Smart home devices are rapidly catching up in India. Today, people are beginning to make sustainable choices at every step of their life starting from their homes, and our new range of wiring devices and switches cater to this market. At Schneider Electric, we believe in delivering the best technology and our teams have been working hard to create market offerings that are ready to disrupt the Indian wiring devices market.”
The growing market share of smart homes in India can be attributed to the growth of IT hubs and HNWI’s (high net worth individuals) which are majorly concentrated in NCR, Punjab, Gujarat, Pune, Chandigarh, Bangalore, Noida and Coimbatore.
A release from Schneider Electric observed that a critical aspect of smart homes today are smart savvy lighting alongside immaculately designed switchboards to go along with the aesthetics of the house. Over the years, consumer demands have changed drastically in terms of features, design and overall amenities. Today, millennials make nearly half of the working age population in India and are one of the most affluent population groups keen on investing on high quality, automated products.
The new products have been introduced in addition to the existing range which consists of ULTI Impress, NEO, ZENcelo, Opale and Livia.
