Air&Me selects Tuya’s solutions in upgrading its products for the smart home market.
DÜSSELDORF—Jan. 6, 2021—Tuya Smart, a leading global IoT Cloud Development Platform that connects the intelligent needs of consumers, manufacturers, brands, OEMs, and retail chains, and Air&Me, a French reference brand for everything related to indoor air treatment, today announced a new partnership to produce devices that are both efficient and beautiful.
In 2006, the Indoor Air Quality Observatory published a first report on the air quality of French housing. The fact is that people in France spend 80% of their time in enclosed spaces. With this observation in mind, that's all it took to convince Nicolas Planté to embark on the adventure: he created the Air Naturel brand—which became Air&Me in 2018—with a simple objective to improve indoor air quality. By 2020, Air&Me is selling thousands of products, developing products to export, and looking for exclusive distributors in many countries.
Air&Me offers a variety of products and solutions adapted to each situation or environment, whether to purify, humidify, dehumidify, ventilate, heat, or diffuse essential oils. The aim is to combine the useful with the pleasant, by reconciling innovation and aesthetics in order to produce devices that are both efficient and distinctive, which can even become "decorative objects" in their own right.
Tuya met with Air&Me at IFA in 2016, and both parties have been very impressed by the incredible possibility offered by the cooperation. Air&Me was at that time working on a special project for an air purifier with enhanced features and the two parties collaborated to make it smart and connected.
Tuya Smart is a global Cloud IoT Development Platform that connects the intelligent needs of consumers, manufacturers, brands, OEMs, and retail chains. The platform provides over 260,000 developers around the world with more than 250,000 product SKUs. Now, ‘Powered by Tuya’ (PBT) products can be found in more than 220 countries and regions in over 100,000 online and offline sales channels globally.
“Developing this product was a real challenge on many levels, the result is an incredibly efficient connected air purifier at an amazing price,” said Nicolas Planté, General Manager of Air&Me. “Our partnership with Tuya instills confidence amongst retailers. Today, our products are sold in many online and offline stores in France such as Fnac-Darty, Boulanger, Leroy-Merlin, Castorama, Amazon, etc.”
“We are counting on Air&Me’s established presence in the European Region to further our smart home reach. The partnership will give both of us new key advantages in broadening the market offerings,” stated Tina Yu, General Manager of Eurasia Region from Tuya Smart.
