27 Mar The evolution of sun protection: the WiFi blind is born

for years, the blinds motorization has been synonymous with comfort, efficiency and modernity. However, the market evolves and, with the, the expectations of end users. Hoy, It is no longer enough to offer a motorized blind: the next step is already here, and it is called WiFi blind.

This new concept represents a paradigm shift in the sun protection and enclosure sector. We are not simply talking about electric motors, but of intelligent systems, connected and ready to integrate into the digital ecosystem of the home.

From motorization to total connectivity

The blind traditional motorized vehicle solved a clear need: automate upload and download. With the arrival of integrated WiFi connectivity, that functionality is expanded exponentially.

Thanks to this technology, the end user can control their blinds from anywhere via their smartphone, program automatic schedules or integrate them with other home devices. This allows, For example:

• Automate opening at dawn and closing at dusk.
• Simulate presence in the home during absences.
• Optimize energy consumption by taking advantage of solar radiation.
• Integrate blinds with voice assistants such as Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant o Apple Siri, as well as with home automation platforms such as SmartLife, Yours, Apple HomeKit, Home Assistant o Samsung SmartThings.

In this context, the blind stops being a passive element and becomes an active component of the connected home.

A joint development: Percoter and Idemo Motors

The WiFi blind concept was born from the collaboration between two leading companies in the sector: Percoter e Let's go Motors.

On the one hand, Percoter contributes its experience in the manufacturing and distribution of rolling shutter systems, with solutions adapted to all types of installations. On the other, Idemo Motors incorporates its advanced motorization technology, con engines that integrate WiFi connectivity as standard.

The result is a fully integrated solution, where engine and system work as a whole optimized from the beginning, eliminating the need for additional accessories or complex configurations.

This approach not only simplifies installation, but also improves reliability and end-use experience.

A transversal concept across the entire range

One of the key aspects of this new approach is that it is not limited to a specific product. The WiFi shutter extends to the entire range of Percoter systems, allowing professionals to offer this solution in any type of project.

This includes:

• Traditional construction shutter.
• Tunnel drawer.
• Compact system (monoblock).
• Mini system.

Thus, The installer or professional can incorporate WiFi connectivity in practically any type of work, both in new construction and rehabilitation projects.

The standardization of the concept facilitates, besides, your prescription, marketing and installation, making it an accessible and scalable solution.

An opportunity for the professional

The WiFi blind is not just a technological innovation, but also a business opportunity.

In an increasingly competitive market, offering differentiating solutions is key. Connectivity has become a powerful sales argument, especially in segments such as newly built housing, efficient rehabilitation or the contract channel.

Incorporating the WiFi blind into the offer allows:

• Increase the perceived value of the product.
• Differentiate yourself from traditional solutions.
• Access projects with greater technological requirements.
• Build end customer loyalty through more complete solutions.

Besides, since it is an integrated system, technical complexity is reduced, which facilitates its adoption by installers and distributors.

Prepared for the present… and for the future

Home digitalization is no longer a trend, but a consolidated reality. In this scenario, sun protection can't be left behind.

The WiFi blind represents a step forward in this evolution, aligning with new market demands: connectivity, energy efficiency, comfort and control.

Thanks to the collaboration between Percoter and Idemo Motors, This concept is now a reality available to professionals in the sector..

Because the future does not lie in selling motorized blinds, but for offering intelligent solutions.

The future goes through the WiFi blind.
