Carrier acquires intelligent building company 75F

USA: Carrier has acquired 75F, a Minneapolis-based innovator of cloud-native, wireless, AI-enabled building automation systems. 

According to Carrier, the acquisition will strengthen its intelligent building capabilities across applications from complex applied systems and high-growth data centres to light commercial and retrofits.

“Buildings are becoming intelligent and autonomous systems that continuously learn, adapt and optimise performance,” said Carrier chairman and CEO David Gitlin. “This acquisition accelerates our strategy to create increasingly autonomous and self-optimising buildings by bringing together connected equipment, intelligent controls and digital solutions in a unified platform that simplifies deployment, connects building data and enables agentic AI.”

75F’s platform combines wireless sensors, intuitive controls, cloud software and AI-enabled automation designed to reduce installation time and simplify commissioning while optimising energy efficiency and indoor air quality. 

Carrier plans to integrate 75F’s generative and agentic AI as well as auto-commissioning capabilities into its large commercial platforms, including its Carrier QuantumLeap thermal management suite, improving deployment and real-time thermal performance for the rapidly growing data centre market.

The combination of Carrier’s WebCTRL building controls install base, Abound predictive analytics capability and the Nlyte operational intelligence platform with 75F’s unified data layer and AI capabilities will create a differentiated end-to-end offering spanning equipment, controls, analytics and outcomes for buildings globally. Together, these integrated capabilities enable building operators to transition from traditional building management to fully autonomous operations that proactively identify maintenance opportunities, optimise energy consumption, intelligently manage assets and improve occupant comfort.
