Our Story
Our co-founders started with a conviction that all homeowners and building operators could be effortlessly connected and environmentally-consciously controlling homes and buildings to maximise energy efficiencies and performance.
Ten years ago, Baulogic began life as a British technology company specialising in the design, integration, maintenance and support of bespoke smart home technology into higher end residential and commercial projects across the UK.
The company foresaw the complexities of installing smart home technologies into larger scale developments while at the same time appreciated the urgent requirement to maximise energy efficiencies and increase the performance and value of real estate assets.
These experiences, alongside our co-founders’ extensive careers in property development and estate management, were the catalyst to launch B1 – a simple, unified smart home solution that unlocks the DNA of buildings and future-proofs homes as all buildings become smart.
It is a solution that is produced and programmed off-site and easily installed within the build process by any qualified electrical contractor. It saves time, cost and complexity and makes smart home technology accessible to all.
The success of this launch shaped Baulogic into the company it is today.
