Our solutions
The Astrel Group operates in various fields of application, providing solutions designed to achieve energy efficiency and sustainable well-being.
Photovoltaic
Harnessing solar energy is only one half of the equation. The other is optimizing its management. To maximize the exploitation of clean energy produced with photovoltaic systems for home and industrial use and for large installations, the Astrel Group offers smart solutions able to optimize both the self-consumption capacity and the production capability of the system. All solutions make use of remote connectivity and/or management via mobile App.
Biomass heating
When there is no sun, there is fire. Heating systems using stoves and boilers that burn pellets and biomass are increasingly sustainable when equipped with Astrel Group control solutions, thanks to technologies employing smart proprietary algorithms able to minimize the consumption of biofuel with no loss of comfort and performance. All control systems are also factory-prepped to allow remote control from a mobile App, so that the heating can be turned on only when needed.
Swimming pools and spa pools
The health of people goes hand in hand with that of the environment. The Astrel Group specializes in electronic control solutions for minipools, swimming pools, saunas and Turkish baths, designed to give total relaxation while not forgetting the need to save energy. Reduced energy usage is assured not least by the exploitation of renewables and the use of remote control, which help to minimize the impact of wellness facilities on the environment, and with nothing sacrificed where user comfort is concerned.
Smart Home
The smart home is one that brings savings. Astrel Group solutions for the smart home are focused on reducing and optimizing the usage of energy, heating and electrical alike, by allowing occupants to manage their devices entirely from a mobile App. The flexibility of Astrel Group devices means that the field of application for smart home solutions can be extended to include SMEs, business premises and hospitality structures.
Building energy management
Energy saving depends on teamwork. Products made by the Astrel Group for monitoring environmental parameters and energy consumption are all wireless, and incorporate low energy ZigBee technology. Benefiting from wireless connection and a globally recognized communication standard, these devices can be integrated with ease into third party building automation platforms for improved energy efficiency.
Our brands
Brands owned by the Astrel Group include 4-noks, Hottoh, Modo and Rialto, each identifying one of the company’s main product lines, namely photovoltaic, biomass heating, swimming and spa pools, and smart home systems.
