Havells India Limited, a leading company that makes Fast Moving Electrical Goods (FMEG), showed off its new line of Crabtree Signia switches in Kochi today. The range comprises two categories, i.e., smart and luxury switches (Signia Smart and Signia Grande) and are equipped with high-end aesthetics and technology designed in-house at Havells R&D centre. People can choose either smart or mechanical switches with the same design, and they can match them to how their homes look.
People are staying inside more than ever, so it’s more important than ever to find integrated technology products that offer convenience, safety, and comfort. Havells will cater to the needs of the consumer with the Signia smart range, which includes two and four-channel relay switches; a smart single-channel power switch; a curtain relay switch; and a smart fan regulator. The diverse range helps control connected appliances and enables easier control of curtains, LED lights and other movements. The Havells Sync app can also be used to control smart modules. The app can also be used to control other Havells IOT devices from our other product categories. Additionally, these switches can also be controlled using voice assistants like Amazon’s Alexa.
Every consumer who aspires to designer finishes in their home can make it possible through the Signia Grande range that offers a premium and a classy touch. The Signia Grande range is available in 11 different finishes, including plastic, metal, glass, and wood-finished plates. Additionally, consumers can also fit Signia smart modules on the same plate to make their switches smart.
Mr. Vivek Yadav, Executive Vice President, Havells India said, “Aligned with the commitment to provide state-of-the-art innovations and the ‘Make in India’ vision, we are pleased to introduce a new range of Crabtree Signia switches in the Kochi market. The Southern region is a strategically important market for us as there is tremendous development and growth happening in every sector. We are very optimistic about our business and will be investing in our channel network and brand visibility to build business demand.”
Mr. MP Manoj, Senior Vice President, Havells India said, “We are delighted to launch Crabtree products to the Southern market, offering advanced and aesthetically designed switches and automation systems. Furthering our vision of catering quality products to the consumer, we observed there is a strong trend for decorative plates in metal, glass, and other finishes, along with smart/IOT products in the Southern market. The region has always been a pioneer in the adoption of Smart Technologies, and we are optimistic that the Havells Crabtree switches range will be well received and appreciated by the aspiring consumers. “
In today’s scenario, when the world is facing the challenge of COVID, Havells also introduced the antibacterial feature into the Signia white range without increasing any cost to the consumer to ensure safety and hygiene. The brand has added a special Viruzsafe feature in the switch plates that has antiviral and antibacterial properties and can neutralise any virus or bacteria that comes into contact. This product is also certified by independent third-party labs with a proven efficacy of over 92% antiviral efficacy in 1 min.
Havells has a strong presence across India, with a 15% market share in the modular switch segment, and it plans to expand aggressively with new ranges in the southern region, where customers prefer well-designed and advanced automation products. The Signia range is 100% made in India and will be available in August through Havells Galaxy stores and online channels.
