Kinedo is bringing its new Kinewall Signature panels to HIX Europe 2026, giving designers and hoteliers a way to build hotel bathrooms around bold animal graphics instead of plain wall finishes. Returning to the show at Excel in London, the brand is centering its display on statement surfaces for guest spaces.
A lion print and a highland cow pattern extend the animal theme beyond the giraffe panel Kinedo showed at HIX 2025, so specifiers can add a stronger visual identity through the wall treatment itself. Walk-in showers and cuttable trays will be shown alongside the panels, and the team will be at stand J65.
Saniflo pumps and macerators for lofts and basements widen where Kinedo's bathroom products can be installed by handling wastewater in spaces without conventional drainage. That turns awkward areas into sellable rooms, which gives the decorative panel pitch a direct revenue angle for hotel operators.

Key Themes Behind This Trend
- Statement Bathroom Surfaces
- Bold graphic wall panels turn utilitarian hotel bathrooms into memorable branded spaces, creating room for premium design differentiation beyond traditional tile and paint.
- Animal-print Interiors
- Wildlife-inspired patterns bring maximalist visual identity into hospitality environments, signaling opportunities for themed guest experiences that photograph well and stand out online.
- Retrofit-ready Guest Rooms
- Cuttable trays, wall panels, and drainage solutions expand bathroom installation possibilities in unconventional spaces, making underused areas more viable for revenue-generating accommodations.
Where This Applies
- Hospitality Design
- Hotels gain new ways to personalize guest rooms through high-impact bathroom finishes that support distinctive property positioning and experiential stays.
- Bathroom Fixtures
- Decorative panels paired with showers and trays shift bathroom product value from pure function toward integrated surface systems with stronger design appeal.
- Building Renovation
- Wastewater pumps and adaptable bathroom components enable lofts, basements, and awkward layouts to become usable spaces without full conventional plumbing access.
