Eco-design at a glance

Eco-design is an overarching process that impacts each stage in the lifecycle of a product.

The objective?

Reduce the product’s impact on the environment, from the extraction of raw materials to manufacturing, shipping, usage, and even its destruction. It is a voluntary approach for the end users and our planet.

How does it work?

Somfy eco-designed products are identified by the ACT FOR GREEN logo which guarantees:

  • Minimum environmental impact for the product, as measured and controlled by an independent body.
  • Low consumption in sleep mode (in particular for the motors) and extended battery life.
  • Compliance with environmental and health regulations for the raw materials and substances used (verified by an independent body).
  • Packaging free from polystyrene and PVC, replaced with recycled and recyclable fibers.
  • Easy disassembly for recycling and repairs, where necessary.

You don’t have to choose between comfort and commitment

Choosing Somfy eco-designed products means added comfort for your home, while opting for more energy-efficient and sustainable solutions.

Do your share for the environment, without changing your habits.

Effortlessly.
