The InterContinental Hotel Group – IHG – has selected shower enclosures created and supplied by Fetim Group brand Aqualux for the Holiday Inn Express brand.
IHG currently operates around 674,000 guest rooms across its nine hotel brands, and claims to serve more than 150 million guests per year.
The contract was awarded to Aqualux following a successful six-month collaboration with IHG architects and the Fetim product design team. Collectively, the brands created a new concept for Holiday Inn Express bathrooms, namely an 8mm reinforced glass shower door and custom glass blade panel.
“This is not the first time that Fetim have created a bespoke product for IHG, having supplied the original shower screen for them,” said Fleur Fowler, pictured, national specification manager for Fetim UK. “On this occasion, IHG had originally wanted a small shower screen divider but there were issues with attaching the screen to a side wall.
“Following a constructive meeting in Athens, at the IHG Conference, our design team were able to overcome the technical issues and they were delighted with the solution,” she added.
