FHA2018 SHOWDAILY 27 A pri l 2 0 18 13 Hollowware and cutlery keeping up with the times AS the world of dining changes, so too must hollowware and cutlery. The latest range of hollowware intro- duced by Rosenthal reflects current din- ing trends. Its Junto collection is a mix and match of porcelain and stoneware of muted colours, non-uniform shapes and sizes, showing an informal yet robust look. “The specific characteristic of Junto is what you may say are ‘organic’ shapes — irregular and non-symmetrical. What’s laid out on the table may include pieces of dif- ferent sizes, thickness and heaviness,” says Paolo Bersan, export area manager, hotel and restaurant division of Arcturus Group. The group has brands such as Rosenthal and Sambonet. Bersan says the Junto collection reflects the new trends in dining and hospitality. People dine in less formal settings today and food sharing is more common. The Junto plates and bowls allow dishes to be served in different size portions. The flex- ibility is good for specialty restaurants and especially suited for Asian cuisines. “We expect the Junto collection to be very appealing in this part of the world.” For cutlery, the renowned brand Sam- bonet is showcasing fresh and bold col- lections of spoons, forks and knives with iconic shapes and a variety of finishing in copper, gold, champagne and black. These are designed and finely made in Italy. “Our clientele are the top-end hotels, four-star and above, including luxury ho- tels. And Asia is one of our main market regions where we will place heavy empha- sis,” says Bersan. “In the past few years and going for- ward, we are seeing a growing number of hotel projects across the region. With clients becoming more desirous of quality, we are anticipating business growth. “It is advantageous for us to be at FHA because from this central location we can reach out to clientele in a big region including India, Maldives, and the Gulf countries. “FHA gives us the opportunity to re- inforce contacts with local and regional partners. It is very important to have con- tact with owners of new hotels and keep up the conversations.” Paolo Bersan is waiting to talk to you at booth 3K2-07.
