Furnishing Idea is the portal dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, designed to bring together different professionals such as architects, designers, carpenters, furniture makers and manufacturers active in the furniture market who represent the reference point in terms of innovation and quality of the product offered. On the other hand, the portal aims to provide a valid information service focused on products, projects, events and fairs and everything that revolves around the world of components, semi-finished products and accessories for the furniture industry.

 

The portal is divided into different sections where you can explore the different products according to different categories, get in touch with manufacturers, download catalogues to keep up with industry trends and watch videos of interviews with the best professionals and manufacturers.

 

In the articles section you can find all the information about the most innovative product technologies, such as furniture materials, furniture accessories and systems, furniture machinery, furniture hardware, manufactured by manufacturers with a solid experience in the field. In the companies section there is an overview of the manufacturers registered on our portal, divided by product category, where you can contact us for any request. Our portal also has a special catalogues section to allow professionals and operators in the sector to view in a practical way all the catalogues relating to the various products (furniture hardware, upholstery materials, furniture paints, etc.). In addition, to allow easy consultation of the products, our portal has reserved a product section, organized by categories, where you can find out about the technical characteristics, materials and functionality of each product. The video section, on the other hand, presents numerous video interviews given by professionals and manufacturers that report news, insights and informative content on the best technologies in the sector.

 

In addition, to keep you constantly informed you can also consult our Journal section which contains all the Furnishing Idea magazines dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, such as the edition dedicated to Sicam or Interzum, two of the most important trade fairs in the sector. The magazines can be consulted from the portal or easily downloadable in pdf format.

 

Thanks to the trust placed in us by many manufacturers, our portal is now recognized both nationally and internationally. In fact, there are already many internationally recognized and established companies in the sector, including the AIPEF group (Italian Flexible Expanded Polyurethanes Companies) which promotes scientific information on the use of flexible polyurethane foam in the sectors in which it is used.

The new family of FREElift lifters

Flexible use, easy installation, high versatility: not only in kitchens but also in bathrooms, in offices or in living rooms. The FREElift family opens up new planning options. The new FREElift family of lifters meets the very high aesthetic and functional needs required today to wall furniture.
The FREElift family is much more than just a new generation of lifters. In effect, with only four versions: FREEflap, FREEfold, FREEslide and FREEswing, it is able to cover almost all current applications in front panels. The slim, low profile mechanisms raise even the the heaviest front panels in an even and reliable way. The Multi Positions Stopp (MPS) keeps the front panel in the desired position, ensuring maximum comfort of use.
The eTouch system by Kesseböhmer increases the comfort of all FREElift wall pieces of furniture further. If you choose this option, just a light finger pressure is enough to automatically open and close the doors. Thanks to piezotechnology, the sensor detects even the smallest touches on the front panel. The transmission to the device for opening and closing is activated by the sensor with a radio pulse.
Furthermore, the FREElift family shows its qualities in production and mounting. The great flexibility regarding the height, thickness and weight of the front panels minimizes the logistical effort of the installer.
Positioning tabs, in combination with premounted Euro screws, ensure exact positioning, secure fixing and quick mounting to the body, too. The mounting of the front panel takes place very fastly through the ClickFixx connection. The adjustment is fast and in real time. Lifting force is set directly on the fitting. The front alignment is adjusted on the front connector – in FREEfold also on the central hinge.
