ONE HUNDRED LAUNCHES NEW BRAND CAMPAIGN “MOMENTS MATTER”

por | Mar 16, 2023 | Historias, Moments Matter, Moments Matter, Historias

Today ONE HUNDRED restrooms launches the new brand campaign ‘moments matter’, which links the restroom break with the increasing need of people to take control of their well-being. With this campaign, ONE HUNDRED positions itself as an enabler that encourages people to claim more moments for themselves. The new campaign invites people to make every moment count, giving a new meaning to a toilet break in public spaces: from a moment of stress to a moment of well-being.

The new campaign invites people to make every moment count, giving a new meaning to a toilet break in public spaces: from a moment of stress to a moment of well-being.

“A visit to the toilet is a natural moment that you can use during the day as a reset moment. A microbreak of just 90 seconds in which you breathe consciously or do a simple exercise can already make a big difference in your day. Research also shows that three-quarters of the population are interested in digitally monitoring their own health . New technologies such as interactive mirrors and smart toilets make it possible to turn a toilet visit into a moment of self-care. In the toilet visit of the future, relaxation and lifestyle management come together,” says Marielle Romeijn, co-founder of ONE HUNDRED restrooms.

ONE HUNDRED is a first mover in linking restroom breaks to the future of lifestyle management, by offering smart solutions and services in the field of health and well-being. Since the launch in 2018, the health check and the hydration station have been part of the offer. In recent years, several innovations in the field of well-being have been added. In the coming years, ONE HUNDRED will focus even more on achieving their vision together with new partners.

The scale-up has built a strong brand position over the last 5 years by offering a unique approach to design and architecture that customers associate with clean, safe, relaxing, hygienic washrooms that promote a sense of well-being. The multi award winning design is very well received as «the new standard» in public toilets. ONE HUNDRED is currently active in four countries and has an ambitious growth plan for the coming years.

The ‘moments matter’ campaign will run online and on social channels from today.

Ensuring resilient, long-lasting restrooms constructions.

ONE HUNDRED restrooms, the Dutch scale-up, has entered a strategic partnership with CULI-NOVA (CN) construction management, based in Barendrecht. CN has more than 18 years of experience in the construction industry and specialises in creating integrated solutions.

CN has been active in the construction of toilets in petrol stations, shopping centers and train stations across Europe since 2011. At the start of ONE HUNDRED restrooms, CN was actively involved in the development of the concept. After the development, CN consciously chose to work exclusively for ONE HUNDRED restrooms within this industry. The collaboration has now been further intensified by appointing Micha Berg as Chief Program Officer at ONE HUNDRED.

In addition to toilets, CN specialises in building hospitality and retail concepts and has built concepts for: Ace & Tate, Shell, Delhaize, The Döner Company, C’est du Pain and Einstein Kaffee. This experience gives CN an advantage over other construction parties.

Building toilets in an existing retail or mobility environment includes many aspects such as permits, safety, cooperation, and sustainability. The quality of the construction largely determines the resilience and longevity of the concept. Due to the conscious choice of materials and solid build quality of CN, ONE HUNDRED restrooms has created a concept that is proven to withstand the dynamics of high traffic locations.

“We see CN as an extension of the ONE HUNDRED organisation. The extensive experience and specialist knowledge make CN the ideal partner for today and for the future where growth and concept development are areas of focus», says Bram Gleichman, co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer of ONE HUNDRED restrooms.

«ONE HUNDRED is a collaboration in which we can use all our know-how and creativity. We see the joint (further) development and scaling up of the concept throughout Europe as the crowning glory of our work», says Micha Berg, owner of CN.

Alacant-Terminal, the first train station in the Valencian Community to install premium public restrooms.

por | Feb 1, 2022 | Historias

Hygiene, comfort and permanent staff for the well-being of travelers.

Nursery room, family restroom and a steam experience are some of the services offered by the new public restroom.

Alicante is the third city in Spain where the Dutch restroom company One Hundred Restrooms implements its facilities.

76% of Spaniards renounce public toilets due to lack of hygiene, especially in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Today, Tuesday, February 1, the Alacant-Terminal train station celebrated the opening of the first premium public restooms in the Valencia region for travelers, thanks to the Dutch company One Hundred Restrooms. The event, attended by Niels Bakker, general manager of One Hundred Spain, and the Dutch management team, included the traditional ribbon cutting to officially inaugurate these new facilities. The managers of the different stores of the station also attended the opening ceremony.

The company already has facilities in Madrid Puerta de Atocha (the first in Spain) and Barcelona Sants since 2021, and since January 2022 in Madrid Chamartín Clara Campoamor.

With the opening of this new space, One Hundred intends that each visit to the restroom will bring a few minutes of wellness to the customer in exchange for a fee of 1 euro, an amount that can be recovered in the form of a discount in some stores in the same station. «We are excited to introduce this new public restroom concept focused on taking care of travelers’ health and well-being. The combination of hygiene, technology, design and permanent staff makes the toilet break a unique experience,» explains Niels Bakker, general manager of One Hundred Spain. For its part, Adif Alta Velocidad states that the new toilets aim to improve the quality of service to visitors.

The new Alacant-Terminal restrooms are located on the first floor of the station, next to the Cercanías entrance, and have an area of 80 m2.

In addition to toilets for women and men – all of them equipped with state-of-the-art contactless technology for hygiene – the space has a family room, with a toilet for adults and children and a changing table for babies; a nursery room with a microwave, changing table and an armchair for mom and baby with a curtain to create a comfortable environment for breastfeeding; a make-up table; and a steam experience, located just after the entrance, which helps to maintain the relative humidity levels of the space between 40% and 60%, quickly eliminating viruses from the environment. The facility also has motivational mirrors with real-time information on weather, hygiene tips, etc., and a room for people with extra needs.
