LP SMART PRODUCTS LAUNCHES LP SMART SUITE AT HD EXPO
Smart products division of Leggett & Platt unveils Helios, Helios Time and
LP Sense Illuminate at hospitality design trade show
CARTHAGE, Missouri (May 11, 2015) – Leggett & Platt Smart Products will introduce Helios™ wireless
charging, Helios™ Time and LP Sense® Illuminate at the 2015 Hospitality Design Expo and Conference
being held May 13-15 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
Helios, Helios Time and LP Sense Illuminate are designed to transform ordinary living and working
spaces into modern, connected environments. These innovative solutions are three products in the
company’s LP Smart Suite package, with additional products set to roll out later this year.
“Leggett & Platt has been a leader in the hospitality industry for more than 130 years, and we are
excited to continue our partnership with industry leaders from across the globe as we launch LP Smart
Suite,” said Jason Turner, general manager of LP Smart Products. “We’ve seen significant demand from
both our customers and end consumers, and we look forward to bringing connectivity and forwardthinking technology to hospitality.”
Helios is an award-winning, wireless charging technology that easily integrates into virtually any surface,
offering cutting-edge convenience at home, at work and in public areas, such as hotels, airports, medical
facilities and schools. Helios uses Qi-enabled inductive power, the world’s leading wireless charging
standard utilized by more than 50 million people worldwide.
Helios Time is the first alarm clock to offer Qi wireless charging technology, Bluetooth streaming, Wi-Fi
connectivity and a carbon monoxide detector. This all-in-one smart clock also features remote time
sync, ensuring the accuracy of time and alarms without having to individually set each clock. Helios Time
is specifically designed to help hotels and resorts cut costs and increase efficiency.
LP Sense Illuminate is a lighting system that provides a soft glow upon sensing a guest’s presence.
Illuminate lighting kits easily integrate into a variety of furniture, including beds, nightstands and
dressers. The product was developed to help guests navigate dark rooms, decreasing the likelihood of
bumping into furniture and tripping over personal items.
LP Smart Products will also launch LP Connect® Devices, a series of intelligent devices that increase
energy efficiency, ensure security and intuitively respond to a guest’s comfort level. LP Smart Products
collaborated with control and energy management manufacturer CentraLite to develop the package.
