Focused on building the Omni- channel business in the home automation market and luxurious wall finishes, Hogar Controls & Super Surfaces have earmarked Chennai to begin their expansion plans in South India. Besides displaying a highly curated range of smart home products and solutions, the experience centre also showcases luxury wall surfaces using Venetian plasters or natural minerals, thus offering customers a whole new experience of modern living under one roof.

Earlier Hogar Controls launched an all-new range of Smart Touch Panels, Controllers, Digital Door Locks, and Smart Curtain Motors in the global and Indian markets. In 2019, the company set up its assembling unit in Hyderabad to manufacture products that combine cutting-edge technology and design thinking, thus offering homeowners, retailers, and professional integrators a range of innovative, intuitive, and stylish products. By the end of 2021, Hogar Controls will redefine connected living by manufacturing over 100 smart home products in India, besides offering a full range of retrofit home solutions that enable easy fitting to any existing switchboard without much hassle on wiring or need for remodelling.

Super Surfaces is the latest addition to the TechWish Group and is the first Indian company to exclusively specialize in the design application and distribution of luxury wall surfaces using Venetian plasters or natural minerals. Super Surfaces uses Italian Venetian plaster finishes and decorative natural pigments to create enchanting, bespoke designs. Sourcing natural lime from Italy and other parts of the world, the company creates plasters that can be applied to surfaces, in varying designs and patterns, to achieve extraordinary special effects.
