Track eco supplies, smart rooms, plastic-free packaging, design trends and global sourcing change.
Quick answer
Not every trend matters to every property. Track the changes that affect specifications, packaging and sourcing, then pilot in part of the property before adopting at scale.
Eco and refillable
Refillable dispensers and reusable items continue to replace single-use packaging, driven by guest expectation and operating cost.
Plastic-free packaging
Buyers increasingly specify reduced plastic and recyclable packaging, which also lowers freight volume in some cases.
Smart room changes
In-room technology changes what housekeeping orders and how amenities are presented.
Design and materials
Warm natural materials and restrained palettes continue to influence hotel interiors and the products that match them.
How to act on a trend
Assess the trend against your guest profile and budget, pilot it in part of the property, then scale if it fits.
