The story of a forward-thinking brand

1969

A pioneering spirit

In Cluses, at the foot of Mont Blanc, Somfy* develops the first tubular motor, marking the end of crank handle and ushering in electric roller shutters, screens, awnings and blinds. Our story begins in France, Germany and Sweden, where the company already has subsidiaries. The adventure has begun!
*Société d’Outillage et de Mécanique de Faucigny (Mechanical Tooling Company of Faucigny).

1981

Our adventures in home automation had begun

Somfy launched ‘Somfy-matic’, the first weather controlled awnings and shutters; capable of sensing weather conditions and automatically adjusting awnings and shutters appropriately.

1989

Tonight, Somfy is on TV!

Somfy's first television campaign was broadcast in prime time on France’s Canal +, but by 2005, the campaigns become international. Somfy goes from a brand reserved for professionals to an end-user brand.

1997

Long live Radio!

Somfy integrates radio technology into its motors. Thanks to RTS (Somfy Radio Technology), roller shutters, screens, awnings and blinds can now be operated using a remote control. An additional advantage of radio technology is that a single remote can be used to control multiple products. It’s so easy, it’s Somfy!

2015

Smart and smooth motors

The latest generation of motors for roller shutters arrives on the market. Smart, quiet and eco-friendly.

2018

Heating, light, music and virtual assistants... Somfy expands its partnership program to enrich the connected home experience. In June, the brand opens its APIs to developers for even more freedom.

Next...

We can't wait for tomorrow!
