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

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.
Simple equation: hotelier, customer, supplier
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 assu-
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!

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.
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.

ning, 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.
