Strong show at Greek tourism exhibition XENIA in Athens, December 2010 For the fourth year running, COCO-MAT participated at the international tourism exhibition XENIA in Athens, the biggest event of its kind in Greece. COCO-MAT’s bright 300m2 pavilion proved to be an attraction in itself, showcasing four completely furnished bedrooms, a bed gallery and a selection of hotel linen, towels and bathrobes. Good visitor numbers and strong interest from existing and potential hotel collaborators made XENIA a successful event for COCO-MAT.

For the first time, COCO-MAT also contributed to the exhibition’s conference programme, organising a discussion forum on the subject of sustainability in the hospitality sector. A distinguished panel of speakers representing tour operators, hotels, archi-tects, and tourist organisations discussed the demands and opportunities inherent in green tourism developments.

HOSTELCO COCO-MAT participated at the HOSTELCO hotel exhibition in Barcelona in November last year. Sharing a stand with Italian companies Technogym and Starpool, the three-company partnership exhibited the unique “Wellness Suite”. Addressed at high-end and luxury hotel clients, the Wellness Suite unites bedroom, fitness and spa area in one harmonious space, meeting highest demands on quality and service. The response was overwhelming and COCO-MAT expects to collaborate with the two compa-nies in the future.

Inside Design For the second year running, COCO-MAT also featured in the Dutch INSIDE DESIGN event, organised by Elle Deco at the end of September. For the duration of three days selected design houses were given the opportunity to transform one room each at the prestigious Lloyd Hotel in Amsterdam. The event has become an annual open-house happening, attracting the interest of designers, architects and hotel owners alike. In known style, COCO-MAT this year furnished an entire apartment, including bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.

EU Design As the only Greek participant, COCO-MAT was selected to exhibit at an exclusive show of European interior design companies in Tokyo. Organised by the EU Gateway Programme, a choice of European companies had the opportunity to present to a demanding Japanese audience. COCO-MAT chose to display its trademark 4-layer bed, which struck a real note for its emphasis on craftsmanship and use of natural materials. Several companies and contract agents have expressed an interest in our concept. We are now evaluating proposals for a more permanent foothold in the Land of the Rising Sun.

Beyond Beauty

Taking a step towards the spa and well-being sector, COCO-MAT chose to attend the Beyond Beauty event in Paris in September last year. As part of the “Responsible Luxury Pavilion”, created by well-being specialist Motti Essakow and Buddha-attitude spa brand founder Helen Coulon, COCO-MAT had the opportunity to exhibit alongside other leading luxury and wellness companies. Sleep products stood at the heart of our exhibition space and a selection of “chill-out” furniture, poufs and bean bags were distributed throughout the pavilion.

AA rating COCO-MAT was rated to count among the “Strongest Companies in Greece”. ICAP, a leader for Credit Ratings and Business Information in Greece, awardedCOCO-MAT with an AA rating - the highest score available. The rating is reserved for companies that through proper management of financial matters succeeded to maintain high credit worthiness.

Make your own pillow

Customers in our Hamburg shop were given the opportunity to make their own pillows. Under expert guidance from Kostas Oreopoulos and Konny Dammann, participants learned about the use of different filling materials: natural rubber flakes, lavender, sea weed, and how to adapt pillows for optimal sleeping conditions. COCO-MAT pillows consist of compartments holding the filling in place and prevent-ing it from shifting. All rubber-filled pillows carry a zipper that enables user to remove material from each individual compartment and adjust the pillow to personal needs and body type.Similar pillow-making events will be held in all our shops abroad.

Sleep on nature: lesson 5 – top-mattresses Mattresses are – by design – able to support the heavy parts of the body, mainly the waist and hip areas. Those parts of our skeletal and muscular system which are light and curvy, such as the neck, legs, arms etc., are therefore often insufficiently supported. COCO-MAT was the first company to offer a solution to this problem, by introducing a separate top-mattress. Our mattresses adapt to the body – not the other way around. The body thus remains in its natural position, with no part being cramped or forced into an unnatural position.

What better way to relax?
