At the entrance of each hotel, first impressions are made before a single word is spoken. The moment a guest steps through the front door, every detail—from cleanliness to design—sets the tone for their stay. For Crystal Orange Hotels, one of China’s most iconic mid- to high-end boutique hotel chains, this principle is taken to heart. With nearly 1,000 locations nationwide and an emphasis on experiential aesthetics, safety, and brand identity, their entrance flooring is not just a necessity—it’s a statement.
We are proud to announce that PAALER has been selected as the official floor matting supplier for Crystal Orange Hotel’s nationwide roll-out of custom aluminum logo entrance mats. These mats are not only designed for performance but are also engineered as an extension of the hotel’s brand identity—each featuring a fully customized Crystal Orange logo embedded directly into the mat structure.
The product chosen for this prestigious deployment is PAALER’s Andes™ aluminum matting system—a robust, closed-profile mat engineered to handle high foot traffic, maintain superior cleanliness, and showcase visual identity with precision. It’s no coincidence that Crystal Orange ultimately selected this solution after evaluating several of PAALER’s premium aluminum matting lines.
What makes Andes™ stand out?
Closed-Profile Aluminum Construction
Unlike open-profile matting systems that expose internal components, Andes™ features a sealed and streamlined surface, offering improved durability, easier cleaning, and better retention of inserted carpet inlays.
Custom Embedded Logo on Every Panel
In this project, every single aluminum segment includes a custom-manufactured logo inlay featuring the Crystal Orange brand. This required exceptional precision in both material processing and visual alignment—an area where PAALER's engineering and design capabilities excel.
Aesthetic Integration with Akon™ Carpet Inserts
The visible top layer of the mat utilizes PAALER Akon™ carpet insert strips. This material combines grit-scraping functionality with textile softness and high water absorbency, creating a clean, slip-resistant surface that contributes to interior cleanliness and safety.
Tailored for Heavy Use & Hospitality Needs
With thousands of guests passing through each lobby entrance every day, Crystal Orange needed a flooring system that could endure daily wear without compromising on design. Andes™ delivers this balance by integrating structural performance with visual elegance.
More than just a product supplier, PAALER was chosen for our end-to-end capabilities—from concept and customization to on-site installation and after-sales service. In many hotel locations, including recent installations in Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Chengdu, our on-the-ground service teams braved high temperatures—often above 35°C—to ensure flawless delivery and installation.
Unlike generic flooring vendors, PAALER’s team is trained to deliver specialized commercial matting solutionstailored to specific site layouts and branding requirements. Each mat was individually measured, cut, and aligned for its hotel entrance. The logistical and operational challenges were immense—coordinating materials, labor, transport, and timing across dozens of cities simultaneously—but our teams executed it with precision and dedication.
One of the most demanding aspects of this project was mass customization. Although the rollout was nationwide and scaled across hundreds of hotels, no two entrances are exactly alike. The ability to tailor mat size, surface structure, color consistency, logo printing, and frame fitting for each site required not only flexible production systems, but a deeply integrated supply chain and a robust quality assurance process.
Through this project, PAALER has further proven our capability to deliver custom floor matting at scale, something rarely achieved in the commercial flooring sector. Whether it’s adjusting for local architectural constraints or synchronizing delivery with ongoing hotel renovations, our teams demonstrated what true flexibility means in real-world deployment.
