Carlsbad, Calif. — February 12, 2026 — Nice North America, a leader in Smart Living Solutions, will exhibit its premium sun shading portfolio at the upcoming Lightapalooza 2026 show.

Intelligent Sun Shading Enables Comfort and Control
Nice Sun Shades bring together premium fabrics, proprietary motors, and intuitive controls to create a modern standard in shade performance. With options ranging from custom interior roller fabrics to durable exterior screens, the Nice portfolio allows designers and integrators to tailor light modulation and thermal comfort while enhancing aesthetic appeal. Every system is engineered for whisper-quiet operation and integrates smoothly with leading smart-home and automation platforms to offer effortless control via mobile apps, voice assistants, or centralized automation.
“We’re excited to engage with the custom integration community at Lightapalooza,” says Chris Lynch. “Our Nice Sun Shades reflect Nice’s commitment to marrying design excellence with cutting-edge technology — and events like Lightapalooza give us the opportunity to demonstrate that combination live to professionals who foster more user-friendly home and business spaces.”
Standing out within a crowded marketplace, Nice’s portfolio of shade solutions not only offer custom print options to allow the products to blend into any home or office environment, but its inventory of fabrics, which ranges from 16 to 20 materials, is always in stock. Always having inventory available means that Nice can support integrators and other design professionals without delaying project timelines. As part of its custom shade program, integrators and designers can match print shades based on samples such as a Pantone chip or the RAL color chart to perfectly complement interior color schemes. Further supporting smart home professionals, the shades are offered in a choice of wired AC or DC; RG and lithium battery power choices to help integrators unobtrusively install the products into interior spaces.
