Innovative Smart Solutions to revive electronic manufacturing in Sri Lanka

Feb 16, 2018 (LBO) - Innovative Smart Solutions (Pvt) Limited (iS2) launched their ‘SmartHome’ product line under the brand name Ape with the intention of reviving electronic manufacturing in Sri Lanka, in Colombo recently. Ape users will be able to control their electrical devices such as lights, fans etc. remotely using their mobile phones. The Company says that with the immediate objective of deploying sufficient Units in Operation (UIO) in the country, iS2 will initially offer the product line to the local industry. "This would be an ideal opportunity for the local building industry to use Apé product line in their development projects at affordable prices," it said. "Apart from the intended export market, the company feels it would be feasible for architects and builders in Sri Lanka to deploy the same product line for their customers as well." Towards achieving this objective, the company is currently looking for Business Partners in Sri Lanka to handle sales and marketing operations, initially in the local market followed by overseas operations. “Except the glass panels and plastic components, all of the other technology designs, manufacturing, assembly and testing of the Apé product line is now carried out in Sri Lanka," said founder of iS2 Jeremy Fernando. "Therefore, as the brand name signifies, Apé is a 100 percent Sri Lankan product, probably the first in this category of Electronic Touch Switches and Plug Sockets.” Apé products are designed in Sri Lanka, based on proven reference designs of reputed companies such as Cypress Semiconductors, Power Integration and Microchip of USA. The product design is carried out by a team of electronic and electrical engineers at iS2. The electronic components are manufactured by TOS Lanka in their state of the art manufacturing facility in the Biyagama Free Trade Zone. The Export Development Board (EDB) of Sri Lanka has recognized Apé as a potential export oriented product line and has supported the company by granting product development assistance recently. The event was attended by architects, engineers, building contractors and other professionals in related fields.   For further information, please call iS2 hotline +94771999322 or email : info@smarthome.lk
