Central vacuum system in hotels: the opportunity comes from the Superbonus

The measure within the NRP for the HO.RE.CA. sector

The possibility of realising with the Superbonus the thermal insulation of buildings through the application of a thermal coat, exactly as it happens for houses, is an opportunity for hotels to respond to two different needs (energy efficiency and cleaning of the hotel structure) with a single definitive solution.

HO.RE.CA. is the acronym that stands for Hotellerie-Restaurant-Cafè and synthesises all the activities that revolve around hospitality, reception and catering, one of the sectors most affected by the two-year pandemic that has taken away the pleasure of that conviviality that can only be found at the table.

It is precisely to favour this sector of the Italian economy, which has been heavily damaged by the pandemic crisis, that an investment measure - Measure M1C3, investment 4.2.1 - has been dedicated within the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, PNRR.
