Netlink Group have for a few years been championing the need for technology as a major partner in building intelligent energy efficient buildings. The challenge for Netlink was to find new markets to help grow the business whilst keeping abreast of technological change in a complex environment. The demand for high green star rated buildings has spurred the need for technology to provide core intelligent solutions to control and manage smart buildings, that both conserve and maximise the use of energy to significantly reduce the carbon footprint and lower energy cost. Netlink Group has partnered with global companies whose energy efficient solutions makes a compelling inclusion in both new and existing buildings.

To further accelerate the growth into the intelligent building and automation industry, Netlink Group recently acquired Ultimation, a local business well recognised for their achievements in high value residential building automation, lighting control and intelligence solutions. The acquisition of Ultimation is immediately transferable to the commercial sector as most of the technology and control systems completely overlap. Leveraging from the Netlink Group's Clipsal Platinum Partnership and Automation's Clipsal PointOne Partnership, Netlink Automation will be able to offer complete turnkey solutions in both the commercial and residential markets.

Soon to be completed premises in Leederville will become a major showpiece for intelligent building systems in WA and we expect to generate a lot of interest in this rapidly growing market as a result.
