ABB and Samsung Electronics have announced an integration between ABB Ability BuildingPro and Samsung SmartThings Pro. The integration connects building intelligence with Samsung’s enterprise IoT ecosystem, enabling building owners and operators to access building data, insights and controls through a more connected environment.
ABB Ability BuildingPro connects devices and data across building systems and enables analytics and operational insights through ABB Ability BuildingPro Suites. Samsung SmartThings Pro brings these capabilities into the Samsung ecosystem through a secure cloud-to-cloud integration, allowing data to be shared between both platforms.
The integration gives building operators a unified view of lighting, climate, shading and access control systems, alongside energy monitoring and presence detection data. ABB Ability BuildingPro Edge supports field-level protocols including BACnet, KNX, ModBus and energy metering, while BuildingPro Suites provides a secure connection to the cloud.
For hospitality environments, a dedicated solution based on ABB i-bus KNX and NETxAutomation software supports guest room integration with Samsung SmartThings Pro. The integration supports occupancy-based energy management and centralized monitoring, and allows phased deployment from a single area to a wider property or building portfolio.
Guests can adjust lighting, climate, shading and entertainment through Samsung SmartThings Pro from their own smartphones. The integration also allows guests to personalize their room environment during their stay without downloading an additional app.
“By integrating ABB Ability BuildingPro with Samsung SmartThings Pro, we are helping owners and operators access the insights they need to make more informed decisions across their buildings,” said Mike Mustapha, Division President, ABB Electrification’s Smart Buildings Division. The integration will be rolled out at three proof-of-concept sites in Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark throughout 2026.
