The following information is from the last update, which took place in 2022 - 2023. If you are reading this notice, the provider has not updated its information since the last update and the information may be out of date.
Loxone enables easy control and intelligent automation of projects of all kinds. No matter if home, hotel, office or commercial property.
The Miniserver is the heart of the system and takes care of most tasks in terms of security and comfort itself. But in times of climate and energy crisis, the company is also clearly focused on energy efficiency. Loxone is the world's only comprehensive energy management system. It visualizes all energy flows in the building, connects all energy components and ensures that they work as efficiently as possible.
The Loxone Group has more than 600 employees in 27 locations worldwide. There are currently 20 employees at the site in Switzerland.
