Aliseo

Jan Hellfritz, MD and son of Aliseo’s founder gives thorough details of the group’s new launches for 2017

What can we look forward to from your company in 2017?

Aliseo will be launching a wide variety of new products in the coming year, first of which is a battery-powered facial recognition mirror that lights up as a face approaches the mirror and shuts off as one moves away. The newly engineered ‘hotel-smart ironing centres’ will also be launched and will include various iron cradles and space saving board configurations. In addition, Aliseo will also be launching the Tea Station — an all-in-one economical kettle platform and tea presentation. Finally, we will also be launching a curved edge shelf platform that fixes atop a toilet paper dispenser, which accommodates both standard and large cell phone handsets.

What are some of your best selling products?

Our best selling products include — the Black Mambo Hair Dryer, LED cosmetic mirrors — City-Light and Cubik mirrors and the Space Oasis — an eco-efficient mini kettle atop a mahogany-stained bamboo platform with a retractable condiment drawer.

Any new partnerships and R&D your company has been involved with?

We have continued our on-going partnership with The Peninsula Group in the development of custom designed lighted mirrors and are actively engaged in the integration of O-LED technology in an assortment of mirror applications. We are also working with Matheo Thun in the design and development of a number of bathroom and guestroom items.

Is Aliseo facing any challenges in the hospitality sector in the region?

Many hotels equip their guestroom with ordinary, inexpensive and mundane products that do little for the guest, and even less for the hotelier. Aliseo tries to impress upon the hotelier the importance of design and the uniqueness of our products and how they serve to personalise and distinguish their hotel from another.

Tell us a bit about your company?

Aliseo Gmbh was founded in 1985 and today has 75 employees. In 2016, sales increased by 12% with encouraging inroads in the Asian market.
