The market research company Berg Insight confirms the company located in Leer, Germany, as market leader in its fourth edition of the “Smart Homes and Home Automation” study. Whole home systems by eQ-3 are already installed in around 285,000 households in Europe today. These include more than six million devices based on the Homematic product line as well as the next smart home generation Homematic IP and major OEM solutions such as RWE smart home. The company has recorded continuous growth over many years in the smart home area, largely thanks to the product line Homematic introduced almost ten years ago. In the last three years, Homematic growth exceeded 75 percent per year, even with the already large installed base. According to Berg Insight, Homematic has three times more installed whole home systems in the consumer segment than all KNX manufacturers together.
The same positive trend becomes apparent when looking at the smart thermostats sector: Over 560,000 households in Europe use smart thermostats from eQ-3 already today, representing a market share of 41 percent. According to Berg Insight, the heating control system MAX! is used in 320,000 households.
In contrast to other smart thermostat solutions, eQ-3 solutions such as Homematic IP, Homematic, and MAX! provide heating control not only for the entire home, but on a room-by-room basis. Therefore, the energy is controlled based on the actual usage of rooms and associated need for heating rooms individually. This results in significantly increased energy savings. Furthermore, while other solutions typically consist of a boiler switch, a thermostat, and a gateway only, the eQ-3 solutions additionally include radiator thermostats, wall thermostats, and window sensors and other devices. When considering that a typical eQ-3 heating solution has eight to nine versus two to three devices, the European market share of eQ-3 based on the number of individual devices would be even above 70 percent.
Another major difference to other smart heating solutions is that eQ-3 provides a smooth extension path to full smart home solutions today, seamlessly adding security and alarm, light and shade, access control and many other applications for mass consumer deployment. The eQ-3 smart home products are marketed under the Homematic IP, Homematic, and MAX! brands through a wide variety of channels, including specialty retailers, Amazon and many online stores, large CE retailers, DIY, and installers that are served by our own field sales force together with the leading electrical wholesaler Sonepar. Additionally, eQ-3 is the technology and product provider behind smart home offerings from RWE, Deutsche Telekom and many other OEMs. With Homematic IP and an earlier OEM solution, eQ-3 is the pioneer in delivering an all-IPv6 smart home solution. Further strengths of Homematic IP are its ease-of-use, confirmed best-in-class security, and a leading position in data privacy thanks to a free, anonymously operated cloud service.

Bleeding gums? Don't ignore the warning signs – the first stage of gum disease can be reversed26.10.2026 11:28:00 CET | Press release
Oral-B iO helps you avoid new tooth and gum issues—and if you have existing gum problems, it can resolve them quicker than a manual toothbrush. Gums bleeding when brushing can happen to any of us, and it is easy to ignore. But blood in the sink is a sign that something is not right with your mouth. Bleeding gums often indicate gingivitis, the earliest and most common form of gum disease. The good news: gingivitis can be reversed with proper oral hygiene. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261022835650/en/ Oral-B iO Left untreated, gingivitis can progress into periodontitis, a more severe stage of gum disease that can only be managed, not reversed, and can lead to losing teeth over time. Healthy gums matter beyond the mouth, too. Oral health and systemic health are deeply interconnected, with inflammation and bacteria from oral diseases contributing to conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and dementia. "Gums
