Nice, a global pioneer in Home and Building Management solutions announced the completed convergence of ELAN®, SpeakerCraft®, and Panamax® Energy Management to the Nice brand name.
Integrated product ecosystem
Since the company acquired Nortek Security & Control in 2021, Nice has been focused on executing its strategic plan to strengthen the company’s position as an industry pioneer in North America by converging its vast product portfolio under one unified brand.
The milestone reinforces its mission of simplifying everyday movements by offering the most complete, integrated product ecosystem in the industry for residential, commercial, and perimeter protection applications.
Nice-branded Home Management solutions
ELAN, SpeakerCraft, and Panamax Energy Management are the first in a series of brands that will transition
ELAN, SpeakerCraft, and Panamax Energy Management are the first in a series of brands that will transition to Nice. As part of the transformation, the company built on the pioneering brand legacies to launch a host of new Nice-branded Home Management solutions across several categories.
These include Nice Home Management with the release of HR40 Remote Control and Home Management OS 8.8 software upgrade, Nice Audio with the recent debut of the SC-IC3 Small Aperture Speaker, SC-IC-SUB8 Small Aperture Subwoofer, SC4-100 4-Channel Amplifier, SB-40P Soundbar, and AIM MK3 architectural speaker series, Nice Energy Management with the DC12-IP Smart DC Power Manager, and the company’s first-ever innovative line of custom smart sun shades with Sun Shades by Nice.
Holistic Home Management ecosystem
“Today’s announcement is a culmination of efforts focused on bringing together several brands under Nice, forming a holistic Home Management ecosystem,” said Mark Owen Burson, Chief Marketing Officer at Nice North America.
“Delivering on this vision will enable us to tell a more complete, integrated story designed to better address the needs of our partners and customers. By focusing on Home Management solutions first, we are now equipped to begin convergence of Linear and other brands to develop a more comprehensive, end-to-end solution for homes and businesses.”
Enhance awareness and position
Addressing the changes and future, Luca Longhin, President of Nice North America, had this to add, “After acquiring and rebranding Nortek Security & Control, the next step in our evolution was to focus on aggressive convergence of the brand portfolio to enhance awareness and the position of Nice in North America."
"The realisation of this vision brings together a complete solution under the Nice brand and, with the broadest and deepest portfolio in the industry, solidifies our place as a Home and Building Management powerhouse. In North America, and across the globe, Nice is better equipped to capitalise on opportunities and drive rapid growth. There’s still a lot of work to be done, but today marks a very important milestone.”
Transitioning Linear Access and Surveillance brand
Nice is also incorporating updates to its HySecurity brand, which offers Perimeter Protection solutions
In 2024, Nice will begin the process of transitioning all offerings from the Linear Access and Surveillance brand, including everything from Access Control to Gate and Garage Door Openers (GDO), to the Nice brand.
The first step in this process will be the release of a new residential GDO, the Nice Linear661, and a consumer application for gates and garage doors, called Nice G.O. As part of the company’s continued development in North America, Nice is also incorporating updates to its HySecurity brand, which offers Perimeter Protection solutions to secure critical infrastructure sites.
One home, one solution
The consolidation of these brands strengthens the company’s commitment to offer a more holistic whole home management solution that best serves its partners and customers by delivering one home, one solution.
Following the company’s announcement of a new organisational structure, recently appointed CEO and President of Nice North America, Emanuel Bertolini, and Luca Longhin, will guide Nice through this next evolution of growth and innovation.
