Basingstoke: 6 July 2016: - Exertis, a leading distributor of technology products for the B2B, mobile and retail markets, today announced further additions to its Smart Tech range of products and an outline of how it is helping retailers and e-tailers address this growing market.

Already recognised as the leading distributor for smart technology products with an enviable portfolio that encompasses categories that include energy and lighting, monitoring and security, safety and comfort, Exertis is tackling the compatibility issue by helping retailers to range products that work with one another.

Rod Slater, Exertis head of Smart Tech, said “With so many new products on the market, consumers need to be aware of which products are compatible with one another to make the most of the smart technology products that can add security, save on energy costs or enhance the décor and comfort of a home. Interoperability is a key selling point and retailers will gain increased customer satisfaction and sales by helping their customers understand and overcome this issue. Exertis is well positioned to address this with its wide portfolio and expertise in this area.” 

Exertis has added the Drayton range of miGenie thermostats that enable you to control heating from an app on your mobile device.
