‘The combined operations of LiteTouch and Panamax/Furman will provide installers and integrators with a full range of high-voltage custom residential and commercial installation products,’ says Panamax/Furman President Bill Pollock. ‘Additionally, both companies’ focus on innovation in energy management and green technologies, such as BlueBolt and LiteTouch Remote Access, provides a tremendous opportunity for alignment and symmetry in delivering next-generation energy management solutions for our customers and their clients.’
Both companies are increasingly focused on providing energy efficiency and energy management solutions. Panamax/Furman has integrated its new BlueBolt Technology into many of its products, making it easy for dealers and installers to control and monitor A/V system power from anywhere in the world through a secure, hosted IP Web portal. LiteTouch has added DayLight Harvesting keypads to its product lineup, and the company will feature a low-voltage relay and data input port option for each of its new 2011 keypads, allowing for the local connection of motion and occupancy sensors to the system.
Panamax provides power management, monitoring and control systems for custom electronics integrators. The Furman brand provides a wide range of power management solutions for MI, pro audio and commercial A/V integrators, and offers a line of power conditioners for audiophile-grade A/V systems and 220V-240V power management solutions for use outside of North America.
LiteTouch is a 30-year player in the residential custom installation market, offering lighting control solutions designed to be installed and custom-programmed by authorised dealers, certified installers and distributors worldwide. LiteTouch lighting control systems are engineered for both new construction and retrofit applications, with features such as remote access, conditional event and custom programming, daylight harvesting and other energy-saving features.
As a combined entity, LiteTouch and Panamax/Furman comes under the leadership of Panamax/Furman President Pollock, located in California.
