The BASF headquarters in Germany makes use of Somfy’s Animeo automation system to control thermal exchange at the building’s facade.
A building’s facade is where most thermal exchange occurs between the internal and external environments. Whatever the building’s design principles, automated sunshading and ventilation can help to control these exchanges.
Somfy’s Animeo range provides a complete and upgradeable solution that optimizes the thermal and visual comfort of a building by controlling thermal exchange at its facade. The system can improve the building’s performance, increase the occupants’ productivity and help to reduce operating costs.
Animeo uses a software package to manage the facade in accordance with programmable timer functions, while also responding to climatic conditions.
Animeo solutions are suitable for both small and large buildings.
Somfy will be demonstrating the Animeo system at DesignEx.
