Controltronic: KNX solutions for intelligent and sustainable lighting

Our journey towards Smart Building Expo 2025 continues: today we take a closer look at CONTROLtronic, one of the key partners that will be with us in Milan, Hall 6 – Stand C49.
A German company specializing in the development, production, and distribution of building automation systems based on KNX technology, CONTROLtronic stands as a benchmark for innovation, design, and quality in intelligent lighting and comfort control.

Who is CONTROLtronic

CONTROLtronic develops and manufactures solutions for the integrated management of lighting, solar shading, climate control, multimedia, and security, with the goal of creating efficient, comfortable, and sustainable buildings.
Thanks to the KNX platform, every device communicates seamlessly within the building infrastructure, ensuring a consistent, scalable, and future-ready system.

A notable example is the Living Emotions® Glass Touch line — a series of glass touch sensors and switches with customizable covers that combine aesthetic elegance, precision, and functionality, offering intuitive and refined control of light and environment.

Intelligent light management

In the field of building automation, lighting plays a strategic role: it directly affects comfort, energy efficiency, and the overall user experience.
CONTROLtronic has developed KNX-based technologies that enable dynamic and intelligent lighting management, offering advanced features such as:

• Automatic brightness adjustment based on natural light levels;

• Presence and motion control to minimize energy waste;

• Custom lighting scenes, programmable according to time, activity, or user preference;

• Integration with HVAC and shading systems, ensuring coordinated comfort management.

These solutions deliver significant energy savings while enhancing visual and thermal comfort.
CONTROLtronic’s approach combines technical intelligence with aesthetic sensibility, transforming light from a functional element into a core architectural and experiential value.
