Europe's hospitality industry, recovering with a 15% YoY increase in hotel construction (Eurostat, Q2 2023), is prioritizing hygienic, durable electrical solutions—and ceramic switches are answering the call.
Hygiene and Durability
Ceramic's non-porous surface inhibits bacterial growth, a critical factor post-COVID. Hotels like Marriott’s Moxy Berlin have adopted antimicrobial ceramic switches, reducing cross-contamination risks in high-touch areas.
Luxury Appeal
High-end resorts are customizing ceramic plates with metallic inlays or artisan glazes. “Guests expect boutique aesthetics without compromising on safety,” says interior designer Clara Rossi. “Ceramic offers both.”
Data-Driven Insights
A 2023 study by Hospitality Tech revealed that 73% of guests associate premium switches/sockets with overall property quality. Ceramic’s silent operation (vs. plastic “click” sounds) also enhances room ambiance.
Sustainability Edge
With the EU’s Single-Use Plastics Directive expanding to include construction materials, hotels are replacing plastic components with ceramic alternatives. KERUIDA’s recycled ceramic line, made from 40% post-industrial waste, is a top choice for eco-certified projects.
Outlook
As travel rebounds, ceramic switches will remain pivotal in blending luxury, safety, and sustainability across Europe’s hospitality landscape.
