Veluwe hotel opts for better tiling

Van Beek Tegelprojecten made a valuable contribution to the complete renovation of hotel De Werelt in Lunteren. The specialist in high-end tiling fitted forty hotel rooms, the washrooms and the new wellness area with atmospheric wall and floor tiles.

"The wellness area is among the hotel's showpieces," says Daryl Otten, project manager at Van Beek Tile Projects. "It includes a swimming pool and sauna. Partly because of the warm, luxurious look of the tiling, this space is reminiscent of the former bathhouses." Hotel de Werelt also has 125 luxurious hotel rooms, 15 function rooms and its own restaurant.

Warm, natural materials

On this project, Van Beek Tegelprojecten worked closely with sister company KeraStone, supplier and expert in ceramics and natural stone. Otten explains: "In close consultation with the client, we mapped out the desired look and result. On this basis, we advised on the choice of material and the way of processing. Warm, natural materials were chosen throughout the complex."

Mosaic

In the sauna of the wellness area, Van Beek Tegelprojecten applied mosaic tiles. To ensure the watertightness of the mosaic, it was fixed with two-component adhesive. "A challenging job," Otten looks back. "Exactly the kind of jobs we like to tackle. We stand for a high-quality overall approach and thorough work preparation. Moreover, we work with certified personnel experienced in complex projects."

Good interplay

"The size of the project combined with the tight deadline was also a concern," Otten continues. "In this respect, our affiliation with KeraStone offers advantages. As sister companies, we work closely together. The lines are short and we can switch between us incredibly quickly. Partly because of this good teamwork, realisation went smoothly and quickly. You can see that in the end result, which contributes wonderfully to the overall look of the hotel."
