FERMAX has recently made a majority investment in Polish technology company S-LABS, which specialises in designing and developing IoT solutions for multi-residential buildings.

With this investment, we aim to expand our portfolio of solutions for home comfort, security and automation, by integrating S-LABS technology into our connected video door entry systems with an initial focus on the Polish market.

"Energy efficiency in general, and particularly in the apartments, is becoming increasingly important, not only for its contribution to sustainability but also for the benefits it brings across the entire value chain in the residential sector: from developers, architects and construction companies to the end user," says Jeremy Palacio, President & CEO of FERMAX. "With this investment, we want to fully enter the energy efficiency sector by creating synergies that combine our video door entry solutions, such as our 100% IP MEET system, with next-generation IoT products that optimise the management of electricity, water and heating in the apartment."

Our portfolio is thus expanded with customised solutions, in line with the requirements of an increasingly demanding real estate sector that seeks to offer, as an added value to its offering, homes with integrated technology for energy saving and security.
