Sinopé Wins Gold at the Grands Prix du Design for its Smart HVAC Thermostat

Sinopé Technologies, the largest Canadian manufacturer of smart devices for the residential and multi-residential sectors, was awarded Gold at the 18th edition of the Grands Prix du Design for its Smart Thermostat for Central Systems HVAC in the Industrial Design / Product - Media, Consumer Electronics & Digital category.

User experience at the core of its design

This award-winning device captivates with a chic and elegant aesthetic that seamlessly blends modernity, comfort, and simplicity. Featuring clean, rounded lines and a deep black finish, it creates a subtle textural contrast between its velvety matte frame and its slightly glossy color touchscreen. The user experience is central to the interface: the screen displays the time, temperature, and weather, while the backlighting automatically adapts to ambient light for optimal visual comfort, day or night.

Paired with the free Sinopé Neviweb app, the thermostat delivers unparalleled flexibility and peace of mind. Users can take advantage of advanced features like custom scheduling (up to 12 periods a day), geofencing for automatic temperature adjustments based on occupancy, and detailed energy consumption graphs. Additionally, the device integrates with the Éco Sinopé feature for participating in demand response programs and supports voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

Proudly Canadian

Beyond its sophisticated design and smart capabilities, this product—entirely designed, developed, and manufactured in Québec (Canada)—offers a highly simplified installation process. The wall plate ingeniously incorporates a built-in level to guarantee straight, precise mounting. It also comes with decorative plates designed to easily cover the footprint of an older device, eliminating the need for paint touch-ups. Furthermore, its minimalist packaging and end-of-life recyclability highlight the company's strong environmental commitment.

The Sinopé smart thermostat for central HVAC systems was also highly evaluated for the extensive remote control capabilities and smart features showcased on the INT Design competition platform.
