This combines state-of-the-art locking technology with our customised software and cloud solution and met with great interest. The opportunity to test our systems directly on site convinced many hoteliers of the benefits of our solutions.

With the MobileLine, we enable secure and uncomplicated luggage storage without the need for additional space. Control via smartphone app makes it particularly convenient for trade fair visitors to use. The solution is not only suitable for hotels, but also for venues and events - wherever short-term and flexible storage solutions are required.

This model offers hotels the opportunity to utilise modern luggage storage technology for hotel operations without high initial investments. Instead, the model is based on a revenue share: Variocube provides the locker solution, while the revenue from usage is shared between the operator and Variocube. This concept offers a win-win situation: the hotel operator benefits from a modern solution that increases both guest comfort and operational efficiency without having to bear the full financial risk. The ability to cover running costs such as electricity and hosting via a fixed basic fee makes this model particularly attractive for hotels that want to be able to adapt flexibly to the needs of their guests. Especially in the area of luggage storage, this model offers a simple and profitable way to implement digital innovations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-01fecd3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"01fecd3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fbbbc31\" data-id=\"fbbbc31\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-134ae2e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"134ae2e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_has_onepagescroll_dot&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8d78ba0\" data-id=\"8d78ba0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ffaf185 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ffaf185\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Insights and networking: luggage storage as a topic for the future<\/h3><p>The Independent Hotels Show was not only a stage for presenting our products, but also a platform for dialogue with industry experts.
