New stylish curves take wiring accessories into the home accessories category
Lisse, a new range of curved white moulded wiring accessories that combines contemporary rounded aesthetics with future proofed technology has been launched by Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management. The range of sexy switches and sockets cater for the connected and stylish consumer by bringing together smart design, convenience and efficiency. The range simply has curves in all the right places.
At a time when the £14 billion home improvement market is starting to feel the effects of the housing renaissance, the new Lisse range helps to make life simpler, convenient and fun – taking the wiring accessories into the home accessories category. The range has been designed to suit consumers seeking new, original, unique home improvements. Mobiles and tablets can be charged in the two-gang shelf frame for Lisse sockets, making flicking a light switch and plugging in a tablet a seamless experience. While hook frames for keys and clip frames for photos, mean important items can be kept where they’ll be seen.
The range is ideally suited for new construction and refurbishments projects. With simple installation and clever design features, Lisse benefits the whole industry, from distributors, installers to house builders and homeowners. These benefits include:
- Easy plug and play LED indication: This subtle but elegant optional feature shines through the front plate moulding when additional location or power indication is needed. Installation could not be easier or more flexible, as the LED indicators are simply clipped into place via a purpose-built holding space on the back of the front plate and dedicated push terminals for cabling. This also means that installers don’t need to carry as many parts as before, and have the ability to retrofit when desired.
-Stay connected with an extensive data offering: Customers can stay connected to their TVs, game consoles, computers, and sound systems with Lisse. Choose from a full range of multimedia connectors, USB chargers and combination media plates to meet all of your needs.
- Save time and space with flexible frames: 1 and 2 gang spacer frames provide the perfect solution when extra installation depth is needed, with the unique Flex outlet frame with dedicated knockout offers the flexibility you need for larger cable requirements.
“Consumers are really focusing on home improvements as the housing renaissance takes hold. With the Lisse range we are immersing contemporary design with technology and efficiency to cater for the connected home. This innovative development is not just for the connected modern consumer, it has been designed to ensure installation and distribution efficiency and provide a future proofed product for house builders. This is about offering smart solutions from the plant to the socket outlet,” said Kristin Hanley, Wiring Device Category Manager from Schneider Electric.
Lisse has been independently tested to validate the range’s antimicrobial properties. Its urea construction means that the product range is resistant to harmful bacteria such as MRSA, E-Coli, Salmonella and Klebsiella Pneumonia, making it the ideal solution for hospitals and care homes.
