Hospitality Design - Expo 2020 - 67
exhibitor spotlight
What product did you hope to
launch this year at HD Expo?
How did this product come about?
Tell us the backstory.
What were you trying to achieve
with the design of this product?
Our New Unicolor™ line of Power &
Data Outlets has colors and finishes that
completely cover both our Trim Plates,
Trim Bezels, and modules (AC/ USB/
USB-C/ CAT 6/ HDMI/ Switches, etc.)
with a singular finish. We are now adding
to our Unicolor™ a new range of Copper
finishes as well. Our "True Copper"
surface finish adds an anti-pathogen
capability to the surfaces of our Power &
Data outlets so that hotel guests can safely
touch our devices.
At Metro, we were asked by our clients
to come up with a wide range of colors
and finishes that would completely cover
both our Trim Plates and the modules
(AC/USB/USB-C/Switches) on our
Power and Data Outlets. Making the
finish scratch resistant was a concern
at first, but we came up with a solution
that not only met this challenge but
exceeded it, and we are now able to offer
our Unicolor™ line with a vast range of
finish options, and custom options as
well. Copper has long been known to
destroy pathogens on its surface within
hours (such as COVID-19, as well as
E.Coli, and C. Difficile, among others,)
so, we moved quickly to add our "True
Copper" finish to our line of Power &
Data outlets.
Initially, our goal was simply to continue
to meet the needs of our clients, which
have become more sophisticated, but with
the challenges posed to the hospitality
industry by COVID-19, we realized that by
applying our knowledge of materials, we
could also help create a safer environment
for hospitality guests by offering finishes
such as our True Copper with its pathogen
killing properties.
Why does this product belong in
your company's offerings?
Our Engineering and Design teams at
Metro have a reputation as being both
innovative and creative; in adding the
"True Copper" series to our Unicolor™
line, we are reacting to the impact of
COVID-19 on the future of hospitality,
with a solution that can help.
What innovations are you bringing
to this product category?
By adding our new "True Copper" finish
to our Unicolor™ line, we at Metro are
responding to the tremendous challenge
faced by everyone in hospitality - to
provide a safer environment and doing
everything possible to protect the health
and safety of hotel guests everywhere.
