PRESS RELEASE

23 November 2018 - Somfy, a leader in home automation, today announces the launch of the Huna motorised roller blind system. With endless design options, intuitive installation and easy operation via app or wireless wall switch, Huna is truly the next generation in blinds.

Powered by Somfy, the new system is designed to add some extra smarts and style to the home. Offering insights and responding to commands all from a smartphone app, its availability in a wide range of colours, finishes and sizes makes it a match for any interior. The option to add a light sensor means the blinds can also react to and manage the amount of light entering, letting you relax as Huna takes control.

Make it yours

For those looking for a little personalisation, Huna’s motorised blinds are available in a total of 150 different configurations. Whether it’s a titanium cassette profile or a sand coloured fabric, Huna has got all homes and styles covered. A configuration tool on Huna’s website allows customers to adapt their blinds as they please, meaning they’ll fit into any home décor, from sleek studios to country-chic kitchens.

Make it friendly

An accompanying app for the Huna blinds gives customers complete control. Want to open/close the blinds separately or as a group? Create a bespoke home scenario or automatic timer function? Or simply record the ideal position of the blinds? Once installed, the system can be tracked and commanded via smartphone – just relax as your new blinds take care of everything.

Make it easy

Despite all of its different tech capabilities, have no fear; you don’t need to be a DIY veteran to install the Huna blinds. The clever installation provides step by step guidance, so the system will be up and running in no time. A three year battery life and unique mounting system guarantee a wirefree and simple setup, no separate hub needed.

Make it smart

Everyone’s looking for a little extra convenience in their lives, and the Huna blinds will streamline your everyday life. In addition to the app and wireless wall switch, an additional light sensor means the blinds will automatically roll up or down to provide optimal thermal performance, to protect interiors and manage natural light. Whether you want to convince the outside world that you’re around all day or are looking for a more gradual wake up, Huna, the next generation of blinds, can do it all.
