“It is with a great honor that we announce the distinctive gains achieved by GEZE with the double win of the German Design Award 2018” declared Charles Constantin; Managing Director GEZE Middle East. The German Innovation Award recognizes innovative products and solutions from all industries that stand out from current solutions due to their significantly greater benefit. It thus makes exceptional services visible to a broader public. GEZE has numerous innovations that make lives better, easier and more pleasant, and that shape the future. Sometimes they are obvious, as in the case of the GEZE ActiveStop door damper. But GEZE often enjoys the added convenience or the enhanced security of a product without being able to imagine the innovative strength behind it, this could be the case with the climate-active façade with GEZE IQ box KNX. Charles Constantin affirmed.A brand new “door control” with GEZE ActiveStop door damper
The door damping offers unique new door control. With GEZE ActiveStop, room doors are stopped gently, closed quietly or kept open with ease. Whether you give the door a gentle or a hearty push – the system opens it safely and independently, up to the individually adjustable hold-open position. At the same time, the draw-in damper brakes the swing door at the right time and keeps it open safely in the required position. This is also an advantage if during ventilation the door threatens to slam shut in an uncontrolled way. GEZE ActiveStop ensures doors can be kept open safely. Thanks to active damping, the door closes slowly and quietly and prevents not only noisy slams, but also unsightly marks on walls or injuries as well. In addition, there is now also a retrofit version fitted on the door frame. As it can be stuck in place and then simply removed again, it is the ideal solution for rented flats.
Climate-active façade with GEZE IQ box KNX
In building automation, a climate-active smart façade satisfies modern requirements, such as energy-efficient ventilation, a healthy indoor climate and the monitoring of window statuses. This is achieved through an intelligent combination of window drives and sensors. These can be operated intelligently via the IQ box KNX interface module, integrated into the KNX communication standard. The window drives of the GEZE IQ window drives series can be integrated into KNX building systems as direct bus participants for controlled natural ventilation. Window statuses can thus be displayed, operated and monitored centrally. Thus automated, the windows allow direct communication with other components in the KNX building system, such as KNX push buttons and KNX sensors. In this way, all windows in a building can be closed centrally at the push of a button. Via precise activation of the window drives, the module enables energy saving potential and offers additional safety: After completing a command, the window status is reported back to the KNX building system or building management system.
