The company designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services commercial HVAC equipment, industrial refrigeration systems, controls, security systems, fire-detection and fire-suppression solutions, and provides technical services including maintenance, repair, retrofit and replacement of equipment, complemented by its OpenBlue digital software platform that combines building products and services with artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities to enable data-driven smart building solutions.
