Hardware for furniture, upholstery, kitchen, coatings and furnishing systems.

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.

Finished panels, laminates and edges: Espresso 2022, complete and coordinated collection by Cleaf

Espresso 2022: stock service for official Cleaf retailers


The strength of the company is also the service. Cleaf in fact offers Espresso 2022, a stock service for its official retailers; it is a selection of products from its collection always available in stock and can be ordered in packs or single items, exclusively online. Espresso 2022 is a complete and coordinated collection of 131 products, developed in 29 finishes, available as veneered panel, laminate and edge. By selecting the desired finish of the veneered panel, the relevant products available and the matching laminates and edges appear.

 

Cleaf veneered panels, laminates and edges: aesthetic and tactile research on cladding surfaces


The Espresso 2022 collection highlights the innovative aesthetic and tactile research on coating surfaces carried out by Cleaf that allows the creation of multiple stylistic combinations suitable for different contexts. A valid example is the Fronda texture that reproduces the elm wood, with veins similar to those of oak but with a brighter colour, or the Alpaca texture that reproduces the silky effect of the precious natural fibre, or the very refined Duna that presents in relief medium sized granules such as sandstone.

Cleaf's collection of laminated panels, laminates and edges certifies the ability of Made in Italy to interpret the needs of contemporary furniture and to respond effectively to the stimuli coming from furniture manufacturers, thanks to the continuous exchange of ideas with architects and industrial designers.
