If you want to create an elegant yet durable and versatile tabletop presentation, the Melamine Dinnerware Collection is perfect for any restaurant environment which wants to keep its high standards and serve its guests in the best possible way. Melamine Dinnerware is made of a lightweight, durable, heat-resistant, and food-safe material similar to plastic and it is considered a safe and eco-friendly option, an alternative to stoneware, porcelain, or glass. It looks like real stoneware, but it is virtually unbreakable chip and scratch-resistant, available in various sizes, shapes, and colors.

If you are in the process of deciding whether the choice of melamine dinnerware is right for your hospitality establishment, then you may need to consider the following:

1

The type, style and ambiance of your hospitality establishment.

These are considered the main factors you should have in mind when deciding whether to use melamine dinnerware in your hospitality establishment. This is because an all-day/casual dining or family-friendly restaurant would most probably prefer to use dinnerware that is more lightweight and easier for its personnel to use and clean, without worrying about breakages and chipping. Impressing its guests and creating an amazement effect may not be the number one priority for this type of restaurant.  On the contrary, a fine dining restaurant with a more elegant, graceful, and formal style and ambiance would most probably prefer to use fine porcelain or bone china crockery. As a result, the type of tableware used in the hospitality establishment should match its style and ambiance.

2

The number of people it serves.

A banqueting or catering hall or a restaurant that accommodates big parties and events such as weddings requires tableware that is more versatile, practical, stain and chip resistant, nonporous, and dishwasher safe, to be able to function correctly during challenging service times.

3

The location of the hospitality establishment.

This is equally important to the other two factors when deciding whether to choose melamine tableware for your hospitality establishment. This is because a restaurant or bar which is close to the beach would have completely different requirements to a restaurant or tavern which is in the countryside. The unbreakable, food-safe, and lightweight qualities of melamine would help a beach bar or restaurant to keep its high standards of food quality, safety, and cleanliness. Melamine tableware is SGS and NSF-approved.

4

Cost-Effective and Affordable.

Your choice of dinnerware depends also on your budget. Melamine dinnerware is usually considered a more cost-effective option in contrast to porcelain, stoneware, or bone china, thus being highly affordable and efficient for any type of restaurant which is interested in keeping its high-quality standards and serving its guests in tableware that is elegant and stylish while saving time and money.

A wine glass is like a unique piece of jewelry with a special brilliance and an unmistakable sparkle.

The shape of the wine glass is important as it influences how the wine reveals its aroma and how it hits the taste zones of the tongue.

When you sniff and sip, the wine aroma becomes more distinct and extraordinary, so it immediately impacts how you perceive it and at the same time it influences your mood and attitude as well.

In addition, the type of wine glass you use for serving wine determines the formality of your event or dinner. For example, a glass with a stem makes it easier to swirl the wine and offers a more formal feel whereas a stemless wine glass creates a more relaxed and casual feel and can heat the wine quicker as your hand touches the glass bulb.

The new model of Stolzle Lausitz called "STARlight" offers a new dimension to the world of wine glassware. It is defined by its striking elegance, its lively lightness as well as its high functionality and robustness. Made of fine crystal glass, the gracefully slender stem of this one-piece lead-free glass in combination with its delicately thin-walled goblet ensures maximum wine flavor and makes it ideal for all atmospheric occasions. They are classic at first glance and prominent at first touch, ensuring professionalism and innovation at the same time!

The modern world of hospitality requires convenience, versatility, sustainability and disposability. Recently, in July 2021, the European Union banned single-use plastics including plates and cups, cutlery, straws and other items aiming to reduce environmental pollution from plasticware. For this reason, hospitality establishments are looking for other disposable, more convenient, easy-to-use and practical alternatives in order to switch away from single-use plasticware. One of the most viable and sustainable solutions, alternative to normal glass are polycarbonate glasses. Below we will explore 5 reasons why the use of polycarbonate glasses is safer than normal glass.

1

Virtually Unbreakable. Incredibly Strong and Safe

Unlike glass, polycarbonate beverageware is considered as an incredibly safe, strong, durable and long-lasting option alternative to glass. This is because it does not shatter, meaning that it is ideal for active areas where broken glass can cause a health and safety issue, such as family-friendly venues as well as any type of beach and pool areas. In addition, they are particularly practical as they can be stored and transported easily without the risk of breakages and scratches.

2

Elegant and Versatile

Polycarbonate glasses look elegant, refined and stylish. They look like real glass but due to their unique properties, they have the advantage of allowing drinks to retain their temperature for much longer than drinks served in glass or ceramic. They are also hand-finished made of food grade material, meaning that drinkware equally looks and feels outstanding.

3

Highly Transparent and remarkably easy to clean

In addition to the above, polycarbonate glasses can be easily cleaned and washed in commercial dishwashers at either high or low temperatures, meaning that they are ideal for the high use situations of the hospitality and catering industry.  Their high transparency means that they give better light transmission than other kinds of glasses.

4

Clearly Cost-Effective and Efficient

Tough, Durable and Lightweight polycarbonate material has much lower risk of breakages and scratches, thus immediately reducing the frequency of re-ordering, making it as a cost-saving alternative to glass.

5

Environmentally Friendly

Polycarbonate glasses are made of biodegradable material and for this reason they are considered to be totally recyclable and 100% reusable, thus being one of the safest options for the environment.

Every hospitality establishment sets its tables in a distinctive and authentic way. The way you set the tables as well as the type and quality of dinnerware used is a true storyteller of the whole dining experience you provide for your guests. As the HORECA Industry is a rapidly developing and expanding industry, it is important to have in mind the Tableware trends and follow them whenever possible. 

For this reason, below we present to you the 2023 Tableware Trends of the HORECA Industry:

1

Snow-white Crockery

White crockery and dinnerware are an all-time classic. Although it may sometimes be considered as dull and boring, neutrality allows chefs and food & beverage managers to focus on food presentation itself and it gives them the option to combine dinnerware with other more colorful tableware and service accessories and equipment, thus leading to a contrasting presentation.

2

Colorful Tableware

This year, the hospitality industry is enriched with bright and juicy shades offering a pleasantly unique and aesthetic feeling to guests. The most trending colors of the season include earthy tones such as sweet coral, soft peach and terracotta, which create a sense of taste and bring comfort to the dining table. Soothing and natural colors such as green, blue and teal as well as sage and deep green or even black which surely leave a stylish mark on the interior design and add an accent of formality. However the number one of this year’s palette is lavender and any other shade of purple color, which creates a warm sense of hospitality.

3

Asymmetric Dinnerware

This year, designers have experimented with other options apart from the classic square and round dishes. Dinnerware with deliberately uneven, asymmetric or hand-sculpted edges with catchy decoration reliefs make the difference and create a unique and inviting table setting presentation.

4

Tableware patterns and prints

Another trend that is never out-of-date and it is worth considering is the patterns and prints on plates and cups, as they impress your guests in the most fashionable and inspiring way. Some examples include abstract spiral lines, gold rims, boho style and paisley patterns.

5

Colored Glasses

From green and blue to brown and dark pink, colored glasses with catchy decorations create an exquisite table setting and add an authentic chic style to your hospitality establishment.

As a result, following the tableware trends is always a matter of choice. It depends on when, how and in which degree you follow them, thus creating a sense of individuality and authenticity.

On the 28th of November 2022, our company and more specifically the Managing Director Mr. Marios Georgiou together with the Creative Marketing Manager Ms. Stephanie Georgiou had visited the premises of Cyprus University of Technology in Limassol, for an educational presentation to 2nd year Hotel & Tourism Management students. The presentation was particularly focused on the selection of Housekeeping supplies, especially linen such as bedsheets, towels, mattress and pillow protectors, quilts and quilt covers, bathrobes as well as cosmetics including shampoo, shower gels and soaps, housekeeping trolleys and other guestroom accessories such as coffee making and ironing facilities, safe boxes, minibars, hairdryers, luggage racks and others. Students were interested to know the various qualities of linen and they were explained that the selection of housekeeping supplies mostly depends on the hotel's rating and standard as well as on the decisions taken by the hotel management and the type of guests that the hotel attracts. For example, the quality of linen and accessories chosen by a 3-star hotel varies greatly from the choices made by a luxury 5-star hotel. This is because the 5-star hotel is interested in offering a more affluent, comfortable and splendid experience to its guests. hence it chooses goods of higher quality. For this reason, we apprehend that the selection of the right housekeeping supplies plays an integral role in keeping the high standards of a hotel, thus enhancing guest satisfaction as well as the overnight stay experience. Our company aims to keep and even raise the standards of Cypriot HORECA Industry by being close to students and helping them expand their knowledge so that they get to understand the basic details of the HORECA market so that they recognize the process of choosing the right supplies for each hospitality establishment. At last, we would like to thank the Cyprus University of Technology as well as Ms. Sotiroula Liasidou for the invitation and for giving us this wonderful opportunity to present our company and products to students, thus serving in the education of the younger generation.

An apron is the most useful, widely used and essential part of a uniform for any type of role in the hospitality and catering business. Whether a chef, kitchen or service personnel, or a housekeeper, an apron can add a sense of elegance and grace to the existing uniform while helping personnel look more professional, stylish and creating a branding effect as well. In addition to these, an apron is ideal for keeping your personnel protected from stains, spills and splashes thus preventing infection and cross-contamination and keeping clothes clean and tidy. As known, there are various types of aprons and each one is used for a different purpose, meaning that each personnel category should use a different type of apron depending on his/her role.  1

Bib apron

This is the most popular style of apron, ideal for chefs and kitchen personnel, serving staff, bartenders and baristas. This style of apron covers your body from the chest area to the knee. It has an adjustable neck strap and waist with ties as well as large versatile patch pockets for pens, pads and tablets. It is often recommended to add the hospitality establishment’s logo on this type of apron for promotion and branding purposes. 2

Waist apron

Waist aprons do not provide upper body coverage, but they are much shorter in length and usually end well above the knee. However, they are super practical with wide pockets in the front area for the staff to store everything needed. They also offer ease of movement and practicality and they are usually worn by waiters and other serving staff. 3

Bistro apron

Bistro aprons are full-length waist aprons and in contrast to the waist aprons, these cover the body area below the knees. These aprons have wide patch pockets as well and they are most popular for chefs and front-of-house staff. 4

Cross back apron

These aprons are similar to bib aprons with the only difference being that the straps sit on personnel’s shoulders and cross over the back, thus helping the staff feel much relieved and comfortable as the strain is removed from their neck. These are perfect for serving staff and waiters as well. 5

Waterproof aprons

This is one of the most efficient, hard-wearing, easy-to-use and easy-to-care types of apron. Made of PVC and Nylon, these aprons are spill resistant and can be easily cleaned with a clean damp cloth. These are usually worn by kitchen staff, dishwashers and other staff responsible for heavy-duty tasks. 6

Denim aprons

Denim aprons are the most fashionable choice for casual dining bistros and restaurants or bars with a modern look. They are hard-wearing, durable and comfortable and they are available in several types of aprons. 7

Signature (Bespoke) aprons

These are designer aprons, particularly worn by serving staff, made of high-quality material with interesting buckles, fasteners and other details making them unique and creating a statement effect. These may cost more than the other types of aprons, but they are perfect for creating an impact and standing out from the rest. As a result, the apron is an essential and critical part of the hospitality business and for this reason it is important to know the differences between the various types of aprons as the choice you make will automatically affect both the appearance and performance of your personnel, as it will either enhance or reduce their efficiency and adeptness.

The choice of furniture is a crucial part of the set-up process of any hospitality establishment and can have a big impact on the overall ambience of your establishment. It can also determine the number and type of customers you attract into your establishment. For instance, if furniture is uncomfortable or outdated, this can immediately turn away your clients. Consequently, the choice of furniture should be made with care and it should match the overall look and feel of your hospitality establishment. Below we will explore the 4 factors that you need to have in mind when choosing furniture for your HORECA establishment: 1

Decide about the type of clientele you want to attract and the overall look of the establishment

The first thing you need to do before making your choice of furniture is to decide about the type of clientele you want to attract into your hospitality establishment. Therefore, this will act as your guidance and direction for the interior design and the overall look and feel of your hospitality establishment. For example, a booth-seating area with various bright color combinations, contemporary elements and finish will most probably attract families, students and casual diners whereas the use of high tables and stools with a more romantic and elegant interior may be an excellent option for couples and fine diners. In addition, if the image of your establishment is more minimalistic and modern, then you’ll need to choose furniture that is more sleek and simple, whereas if your restaurant has a more country-style finish, then you may need to look for more rustic style pieces. However, regardless of the type of your establishment, you need to keep in mind that you are not only serving food to your guests, but you are also creating an experience for them and this is usually what remains in their mind and invites them to keep coming back to you. 2

The size and shape of tables

Depending on the restaurant layout and size, you may need to decide among 2- or 4-seater tables. However, if you usually cater to a larger group of people, then you may need to consider investing in tables of bigger size or placing them alongside each other in order to create a larger dining area. Additionally, apart from rectangular and square tables, round tables are also an advantageous option. This is because they can save you valuable space while allowing for more seating and a much more comfortable and easy seating allocation. 3

Cushion material

No matter the type of restaurant, one thing is certain; your guests need to feel relaxed, content and comfy. This is where you may need to consider the type of material chosen. In this case, it is important to take into account the efficiency and durability of materials as the wear and tear of time, weather conditions and food scraps may destroy your furniture much quicker. For example, in restaurants which have a high dining traffic, the material chosen should be visually appealing and at the same time it should be able to be cleaned quickly and easily. Examples include vinyl for seats and Werzalit or granite for tabletop, whereas wood is an option to be avoided. For family type restaurants, consider having a certain number of highchairs for your little guests as well. 4

Stay within budget

Furniture is usually a big investment for any hospitality establishment and even though it is important to follow your vision and instinct and look for exclusive and distinct pieces that will amaze your guests, it is vital to stick within the budget as well. Hence you may consider shopping around to compare prices before reaching your final decision. As a result, the choice of good quality furniture for your establishment is a profitable investment leading to increased customer satisfaction, brand recognition and a higher turnover. Nonetheless, it is key to take into consideration the overall look and feel that you want to give to your hospitality establishment including your choice of tables, chairs and cushion material, thus making your place look more fascinating, inviting, stylish and comfortable.

Breakfast is considered as the most important meal of the day and also one of the most essential services that a hotel offers. It should not be disregarded that around 88% of hotel guests believe that breakfast time is the most significant part of their whole hotel experience. In this case, quality is more important than quantity in a hotel breakfast as it could easily become a reference point of satisfaction for all hotel guests, including existing and potential ones. Below you can find 3 ways which can help any chef or F&B Manager to take the hotel breakfast buffet to the next level, thus creating an extraordinary result which stands out and leaves your guests happy, satisfied and with several friendly reviews on the hotel’s website and social media. 1

Make your buffet visually appealing

A breakfast buffet has to be visually appealing as appetite is primarily satisfied through the eyes and nose and then through the stomach. Nowadays 69% of millennials take photos and videos of their dishes or the hotel buffet area and they share these on social media before they even taste the food. Therefore, your buffet presentation matters and should tempt your guests to indulge in it or even sway their followers on social media on the choice of hotel next time. 2

Pay attention to the buffet setting and choose wisely the buffet accessories and equipment

Apart from the eye-catching presentation, a breakfast buffet has to be properly staged in terms of layout, selection of containers, materials and equipment in order to allow guests to see the full range of choices available, while keeping the buffet lively, neat and practical. You can also play with textures by using wicker baskets for bread and pastries, slate boards for cheese and charcuterie and big melamine bowls for salads, vegetables and yoghurts. By placing certain food on higher displays and others on lower displays, you tend to highlight specific items more than others, thus giving a sense of elegance, originality, ingenuity and avoiding a linear and dull presentation. 3

Guide your guests to make the best possible food combinations

Numerous hoteliers and chefs are really proud of the wide variety of products that they offer through their breakfast buffet. However, in some cases this could be considered as a disadvantage as guests could have difficulty in deciding what to pick among all those wonderful choices offered to them and they end up making some combinations that do not taste so well. For this reason, it is wise to consider the structure of the buffet and guide them to make the best possible combinations. Another thing that could be taken into account is to put labels and small signs in front of buffet dishes, so that guests know what each dish is and therefore be able to make their choices accordingly. Staff should also be aware of all the dishes presented at the buffet and should be in a position to explain to guests in case they have any questions or requests. As a result, as we realize breakfast could be one of the most essential buffets in a hotel and it is considered to be the main point of attraction for many hotel guests. However, in order to make a difference and transform your breakfast buffet from ordinary to extraordinary, a hotel manager or chef has to pay attention to the small but crucial details as these are the ones that usually make the biggest impact and tempt your guests to indulge in it.

Decoration and table setting in a restaurant plays a major role in the gastronomy industry and sets the tone for an extraordinary customer experience.  Most restaurant owners tend to give more emphasis on the quality of food served as well as to the way service personnel treats their guests. However only a few of them have gone the extra mile by giving more emphasis to the small details that transform the customer experience from ordinary to extraordinary. This is because every time you set a table, you are not just serving another guest, but you are creating an experience for this person and whether the experience is positive or negative, it always remains in the customer’s attention and therefore it affects his decision to visit your place again or not. So how can you provide your guests the most remarkable experience that makes it worthwhile to keep visiting you over again? 1

Emotional Connection

Experiences are usually connected to feelings, so the first thing you have to do is to create an emotional connection with them. Train your staff to actively listen to your guests, to be empathetic, patient and knowledgeable enough so that they provide the best solution possible for your guests.  Serving a customer is not all about food, but it is about the connection and the relationship you tend to have with your guests, leaving them astonished and willing to not only visit you again, but suggest your place to their friends and family. 2

Positive Attitude

The second thing you can do to create a unique experience for your guests is maintain a positive attitude regardless of the guests’ behavior. Sometimes huge workload, stress or a family or health problem that a customer may be going through could lead him to behave more aggressively towards your service personnel. The secret is to teach the service personnel to remain calm and polite and treat guests with respect and kindness because they don’t know what that person may be going through at that particular time. 3

Be responsive to feedback

Another thing you can do for your guests is to be willing to go the extra mile and deliver more than expected. Always ask your guests for feedback and whether this is positive or negative, be responsive to it by reviewing and analyzing it and take the necessary actions as soon as possible. 4

Be consistent

Consistent actions lead to consistent results. For this reason, it is of crucial importance to keep being updated and investing on new technological and other methods in order to address customers’ needs in the best possible way while keeping them satisfied and fulfilled. 5

Be authentic

In the modern tech-savvy gastronomy environment, a customer is smart enough to be able to recognize whether the service as well as the general customer experience offered is authentic or not. Being transparent and genuine while remaining consistent and true to your mission and values earns respect from your clients, thus creating a unique customer relationship based on trust and reverence. True authenticity always shines and comes with a sense of freedom and liberation. In conclusion, customer experience is a journey linked to various feelings, emotions and actions. However, being able to go the extra mile and get into the shoes of your clients by offering them a unique and personalized customer experience is something not to be dismissed and makes clients keep visiting you over and over again.

Sleep is considered as one of the fundamental factors for health, concentration, productivity and relaxation. For this reason, the right choice of mattress and bed is crucial especially for hotels and other hospitality establishments.

According to research, among the various types of travelers, both business as well as leisure travelers, the second most important characteristic after hygiene that they look for in a hotel guestroom is the quality and design of the mattress. When people travel away from their home either for leisure or business, they are actually looking for a home away from their own home and therefore the quality of the mattress determines the quality of their sleep.

There are a few central characteristics which you should take into account when considering changing the beds and mattresses of your hospitality establishment:

Table of Contents

1

Size of bed

The very first thing that a guest can see as soon as entering a hotel guestroom is the size of the bed. A bed which is bigger in size such as a king or queen size bed is usually considered as a sign of luxury and is related to comfort and relaxation.

2

Design and Touch

The second most important characteristic that a guest is able to spot before even sitting or lying on the bed itself is the design and touch of it. A luxurious well-designed mattress which is taller in height combined with a soft-feeling touch creates the impression of a regenerative sleep experience.

2 3

Hygiene

Nowadays, the hygiene of the mattress is as one of the vital considerations of your hotel establishment’s guests. A mattress with an easily removable and washable zipper case, along with a 3D Air Mesh system in the sides of the mattress which enhances air circulation through the core as well as the use of a high quality mattress protector keeps your guests coming back at your hotel establishment again and again.

4

Effective support system and mattress firmness

Following the three critical characteristics that a guest can immediately spot when entering the guestroom is the excellent body support system as well as the firmness of the mattress. The innovative technology of individually packed springs, either multi-, nano- or micro-pockets, provides flexible and stable support due to the different type of pressure that they exert to the various body parts. Also, a mattress with a medium firmness delivers anatomical comfort and sustained support, thus leaving your guests feeling relaxed and tension-free.

4 5

Top mattress

The use of a top mattress especially in a luxury 4 or 5 star hotel is essential. This is not only because it delivers extra comfort and softness due to the memory foam used but it also contributes to an even weight distribution and extends the life of the mattress.

Contact us 6

Available warranty

Another primary characteristic that you should not dismiss when looking for a good hotel mattress is the available warranty that it offers. A good mattress typically offers a warranty between 5 to 20 years. The longer the warranty of the mattress the longer it provides coverage for anything that may go wrong from the date of the mattress purchase until the end of its warranty life. Each mattress factory as well as each mattress itself has its own specific terms and it is usually not possible to provide coverage for everything. Nevertheless, the most important problems that may occur such as sagging or defective seams or coils are normally covered.

7

Price

Even though it is essential to purchase a good quality mattress for your hospitality establishment, this does not necessarily mean that it has to be expensive. The price depends upon the type, the size as well as the brand of the mattress you may choose.

Each hospitality establishment has different requirements according to the type of guests that they host and the impression that they may want to create to their guests as well as the rating of the hotel itself. For example, a luxury 5-star hotel may have different requirements and choose a different type of mattress than 3-star hotel or hotel apartment. This is the reason that there exist various types of mattresses with different features, different support systems and different levels of comfort and flexibility.

Our company offers a complete collection of mattresses, toppers, pillows, duvets and other bed linen as well as numerous types of bed bases and bedroom accessories.

Lastly, be ensured that the choice of the right bed and mattress according to your requirements is considered an investment for your hotel establishment and it has a direct impact on your guests’ satisfaction, rating and profitability.

Your employees are considered as your biggest asset and for this reason their appearance creates and shapes the image of your business.

Table of Contents

This is of great importance for hospitality organizations such as hotels, restaurants and catering businesses as your employees are the first ones that clients see when entering your business. If your employees look professional, then automatically this gives the signal that the organization follows certain rules and morals and it therefore acts in a professional manner towards its customers.

Moreover, the use of professional workwear clothing HORECA industry may save on costs for clothing while also saving time and energy especially when getting ready for work.

This is very important especially for chefs as well as housekeepers working in the HORECA industry.

Size – Color – Elegance

Uniforms need to have the right color, size as well as to be stylish, modern and elegant. These are considered as the three main factors which affect mostly employees’ behavior and psychology. If personnel feel happy wearing their uniform, then this means that they will have more passion for their work as well.

Customization

Customizing the working clothes of your employees with a special symbol or the logo of your hotel or restaurant will create a high recognition value for your business and it will also act as a marketing tool while establishing a sense of unity among employees.

Availability of samples and fair return service

Before ordering the workwear desired, it is important to be able to get samples in order to wear them, thus making sure that their fit and quality is what requested. Nevertheless, in the case where the working clothes do not fulfill your satisfaction, then it is important to be able to return them back without any further obligation.

Price

A satisfactory price-to-quality relationship is also important. An increased price does not always signify a higher product quality.
