The commercial construction world is always buzzing with innovation, and as we approach 2025, new trends are taking center stage. These trends aren’t just about aesthetics—they’re about meeting demands for functionality, sustainability, and adaptability in modern spaces. At Holman, Inc., we specialize in Division 10 specialty products, so we’ve seen firsthand how the right products can elevate a project. Here’s a look at five product trends shaping commercial construction.
- Sleek and Modern European-Style Toilet Partitions
European-style stalls are continuing to grow in popularity. Due to their clean lines, full-height doors, and privacy-focused design, these partitions are ideal for commercial restrooms in offices, airports, and retail spaces. Materials like phenolic, powder-coated steel, and high-pressure laminate ensure durability and resistance to moisture, making them a practical choice as well as a stylish one. - Touchless Fixtures and Accessories
Touchless technology is now the gold standard for hygiene in commercial spaces. From automatic soap dispensers to sensor-activated faucets, these products promote cleanliness while reducing water waste. Popular additions include touch-free hand dryers and toilet flush valves, which are particularly in demand in healthcare, education, and hospitality environments. - Modular Locker Systems
Flexible, modular locker systems are redefining storage solutions in commercial spaces. Gone are the days of bulky, one-size-fits-all designs. Today’s lockers are sleek, customizable, and built to integrate seamlessly into modern office buildings, fitness centers, and educational facilities. Materials like HDPE (high-density polyethylene) are leading the way in durability, resistance to scratches, and low maintenance requirements. With customizable configurations and finishes, these products add style and practicality to any project. - Decorative Wall and Ceiling Systems
Gone are the days when walls and ceilings were purely functional. Products like acoustic panels, decorative wall protection, and feature ceilings are becoming staples in modern commercial design. These systems enhance aesthetics while providing functional benefits like sound absorption and durability. One standout product category is Aspex wall protection, which combines high-end visuals with robust performance. It’s an excellent option for high-traffic areas such as hospitals, schools, and office lobbies, where durability and design must go hand-in-hand. - Energy-Efficient Building Products
Sustainability continues to drive product innovation, and energy-efficient solutions are a top priority. Commercial construction is seeing increased use of LED lighting, smart HVAC systems, and insulated materials to reduce energy consumption. Products like daylight harvesting shades and energy-efficient windows are also gaining traction in the push for greener buildings. For contractors, these products appeal to environmentally conscious clients and help projects achieve LEED certification or meet other sustainability standards.
