«We chose the Elite brand because we believe that it is the best for a comfortable rest.» 

The well-being of our customers is at the heart of our profession; we attach great importance to the choice of bedding. We believe that Elite beds and mattresses provide superior comfort and extended life.

Choosing Elite ensures a better return on investment compared to cheaper, lower quality beds that need to be changed more often. We also believe in the reliability of Swiss manufacturing, the quality of materials used and the importance of the European Ecolabel.

«Simple equation: hotelier, customer, supplier» 

The Elite trademark is a Swiss brand recognized for quality manufacturing. The image of a local company still manufacturing in Switzerland is very important to us. We want to support its marketing efforts by using its products despite more competitive prices abroad (euro rates are favorable for purchasers).

The Smart Lease concept is a perfect example of synergy in the supplier-customer vision of sustainable development. Transferring product liability to the supplier, from beginning to end, is essential for achieving a functional economy concerned with preserving our resources and raw materials. Thanks to the concept, our hotel boasts a zero investment, a guarantee of the quality of the bedding for our guests, the assurance of rotating mattresses according to their use, after-sales service (disinfection, maintenance, repair, exchange) and freedom of choice at the end of the contract (buy-back or exchange). In this way, the bedding is a 100% variable expense, according to our occupancy rate.

We gain better cost control and availability of funds for marketing or for long-term development instead of having them tied up in infrastructure. There is no extra work for the management; the manufacturer picks up the returns and performs the revaluation. All this guarantees a long product service life. Well done! Keep up the good work!

«Swiss made» : an undeniable competitive advantage. 

We chose the Smart Lease rental concept because we find that the technology is cutting edge. The owner of the hotel amortizes his investment according to room occupancy, which ensures an optimization of equipment renewal and therefore avoids unnecessary replacement if the life of the equipment can be extended by taking actual utilization into account.

the Smart Lease concept, the monitoring of bedding and the quality of maintenance, cleaning, and disinfection are included in this calculation. This creates a comparative advantage that the hotelier may disclose since there has been real monitoring by a maintenance professional. Therefore, it is also a selling point for our hotel rooms. Smart Lease technology allows optimization of equipment renewal based on its utilization (occupancy rate of the rooms) and a perfect monitoring of maintenance and, above all, cleanliness. We can therefore count on a reasonable return on investment over the life of high quality bedding.

Moreover, the reference ”Swiss Made” also provides an undeniable competitive advantage.
