Besides providing optimum comfort and convenience, Somfy's automated motors also help cut energy costs and allows users to control light and drafts as well as maintain security and privacy with the simple touch of a button.

Somfy tries to anticipate customer needs and demands and in order to better service its clients in the region, Somfy established an office in Cyprus in 1989.
