Graeme Rodger, category manager at Strix, explains: "Energy efficiency and convenience are probably the key drivers in terms of both design and functionality in the SDA sector. The majority of our new products under our Laica and Aqua Optima brands this year, and moving into 2023, are focused around consumer concerns over energy usage"
"Consumers want to be able to enjoy a hot drink that feels professionally made or shop bought, at the correct temperature and at the touch of a button - so ease of use and customisation is also crucial."
A strong example of this is the company's Aqua Optima Aurora Instant Hot and Cold-Water Filter Dispenser, which allows the user to select the volume and temperature of the drink. With 49 possible combinations, it is a kettle, water cooler and water filter in one, taking up less space. The appliance is also awarded a Quiet Mark - also key for consumers.
