Honeywell teamed with Everrun Appliances for smart homes
On September 6, 2006, just one month prior, Beijing Pengrun Building hosted the GOME Whale Swallowing News Conference, where Honeywell and Peng Run Electronics (part of the Gome Group) announced a strategic partnership under the theme “Creating Blue Oceans Together, Vertically and Together.†This collaboration aimed to introduce smart home solutions to Chinese consumers, combining Honeywell’s advanced automation technology with Peng Run’s high-end retail platform.
Benjamin Cornett, President and CEO of Honeywell Security Group, met with Gome Group’s leadership and Peng Run’s General Manager Huang Pengyu to sign a cooperation agreement. Under the deal, Honeywell would provide the “home gateway†for smart home networks, while Peng Run would handle product display, sales, and after-sales support. The two companies also planned to jointly build a Smart Home Demonstration Hall at Peng Run’s three-story Smart Living Hall in Beijing, showcasing the future of digital living.
The term “Blue Ocean†reflects a strategy of breaking industry boundaries and creating new market opportunities. This partnership marked a significant milestone in the development of civilian smart homes in China, setting new standards for both the smart home and appliance retail sectors.
Smart homes integrate advanced technologies like networking, automation, and ergonomic design to create personalized, secure, and energy-efficient living environments. Honeywell, a global leader in automation, has previously partnered with real estate developers to create intelligent communities, such as Shenzhen’s West Bank of the Red Tree and Tianjin’s Seden Center. This collaboration with Peng Run is a major step in expanding its presence in the Chinese smart home market.
Honeywell’s smart home demonstration at Peng Run’s Beijing store will feature a range of innovations, from automated lighting and security systems to remote control capabilities, smart water treatment, and air quality management. Visitors will experience how technology can enhance comfort, safety, and convenience in everyday life.
Mr. Wang Biqing, General Manager of Honeywell Security Group in China, emphasized that these solutions are already available today, not just a vision for the future. He highlighted the importance of making smart home technology accessible to Chinese homeowners.
Peng Run Electric, known for its focus on premium appliances, sees this partnership as a perfect match. With China’s growing demand for high-quality, personalized living experiences, Peng Run aims to offer consumers an immersive shopping environment where they can experience smart home solutions firsthand.
This collaboration aligns with broader goals of improving living environments and meeting the needs of modern consumers. As China continues to develop, the integration of smart technology into homes and real estate is becoming increasingly essential.
Honeywell and Peng Run are confident that their joint efforts will drive innovation and create value for consumers, businesses, and the broader market. With plans to expand nationwide, this partnership is expected to shape the future of smart living in China.
