Smart buildings are on the rise. Using integrated technology systems, these intelligent structures can control and automate procedures and processes as well as gather data to improve energy efficiency, air ventilation and enhance employee experience through the application of the ‘Internet of Things’. For example, in a smart building used for commercial purposes, there might be a level of connectivity of intelligent networks, powered by software and interfaces that can set and adjust the temperature depending on the number of people in the building. Or in the case of the Lotte World Tower in Seoul, South Korea skyrocket employees to the 121st floor in just one minute. Some, however, have gone one step further, for example Denmark's capital Copenhagen has recently been ranked as one of the top 5 smart cities in the world.

At Hochiki Europe we believe it is imperative to our operation that we listen to our customers, both the end user and our integration partners, and then use that insight to continue to invest in the research and ongoing development of our products. It is this investment in R&D that enables us to continue to be the global leaders in the design and manufacturing of life safety products and systems.
