Detailed Description
Energy Efficiency
The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation
Innovation
Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description
IKEA Sylvia Park is New Zealand's first-ever IKEA store, a landmark 34,000m² retail development opened on 4 December 2025 in Auckland, achieving a 5-Star Green Star rating with 100% reprogrammable LED lighting as a core sustainability pillar. To deliver this, a comprehensive KNX backbone spans all three floors across 19 distribution boards, integrating automated DALI dimming, high-bay daylight harvesting, presence detection, outdoor lux sensing, and security system interfacing into a single unified distributed-logic network. The system covers all retail, warehouse, restaurant, amenities, car park, and external lighting zones. A custom Graphical User Interface provides real-time floor-plan visualization with live occupancy indicators and manual override control across all floors, giving store managers complete visibility and control of the entire lighting installation from a single touchpoint.
