Domestic Appliances
The electronics industry in general and the
domestic appliances market in particular is embracing the endless decorative
possibilities of coatings. In a competitive marketspace, using coatings is a
way for products to stand out on retailer’s shelves.
Gone are the times of black, grey or beige
plastics in a market that more and more targets a fashion sensitive audience.
No longer are appliances selected based on functionality only but also on
aesthetics.
Great examples of this movement are high end coffee makers and colorful
bread toasters which looks like they are pulled out of an Italian design
kitchen. Another example is the vacuum robot. No longer are appliances hidden
in cabinets and closets but they are showcased as any other piece of furniture
or accessories.
