As presenting show partner for the fifth consecutive year, KNX is again taking part at ISE with a large, open-concept stand that is designed to be an immersive hub for all things KNX.
According to Casto Canavate, marketing manager at KNX Association, in addition to the products being showcased by 18 member companies, the most important message the association wants to send this year is the need to be more sustainable.
“This is the first public event where we are pushing this message,” he commented.
Indeed, not only are smart energy products that are designed to drastically curtail energy use and minimise environmental impact on show, the KNX stand itself is as sustainable as possible and will be recycled for a number of events.
In Canavate’s view, KNX is well placed to lead the charge, with others following suit. Signs of change are already evident in the AV industry, he added.
“Sustainability is the concept of completing a project that has been conceived thoroughly to save energy. And that’s what we need to make sure that people understand,” he said.
While it will be important to maintain the message that KNX represents reliable technology, Canavate said, “at the same time, we need to make sure that we are making an impact on sustainability”.
