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.

Xylexpo postponed: next appointment will be in 2022

In the end, even Xylexpo, the biennial exhibition of technologies and supplies for the furniture and wood industry, had to opt for the most logical solution, even if it certainly suffered: the event, scheduled for the end of May in Milan and postponed, following the Covd-19 emergency, to November 2020, was finally postponed to 2022.
As stated in the official press release “The board of directors of Cepra-Centro promozionale Acimall, had to take note of the impossibility of organizing Xylexpo in 2020, giving appointment to exhibitors and visitors to 2022“.

 

Xylexpo 2022, a modern “digital oriented“ container


The organizers have announced the lack of objective conditions to organize the 2020 edition of Xylexpo with an official communication to exhibitors dated July 6, 2020. The letter to the exhibitors explained how the move to November 2020 seemed the best possible solution. The continuous verification work carried out by the organization in recent months and the constant monitoring of all aspects essential for a major exhibition event, have unfortunately led to note that in November the context will not yet be objectively favorable.
An event like Xylexpo, with a strong international value, with more than a third of exhibitors and visitors coming from abroad, would in fact have seriously compromised its normal course due to health and economic situations not yet resolved in many areas of the world.
The appointment is therefore postponed until 2022: the team is already working to design a Xylexpo 2022 that brings together ideas and changes for a new and more modern “digital oriented“ container, a strategy that will certainly see exciting proposals and initiatives in the coming months.
