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.

With the new CIRCULARREFOAM^® range, eco-friendly products with outstanding ergonomic and breathability characteristics, Vefer presents high-quality polyurethane foams made from a blend of virgin materials and a minimum of 15% recycled materials.

CIRCULARREFOAM^® allows this product life cycle to be repeated a total of five times.

COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE.

Vefer has always been committed to research and innovation with the aim of developing new products and new applications. It employs strategies based on the concept of eco-friendliness by working on innovative solutions that save availability and energy. The key to the circular economy is to redesign production from end-of-life materials that become a new resource. This commitment to the future is based on three principles:

•        Enhancing the value of post-consumer products
•        Producing durable products and materials
•        Regenerating natural systems

AWARENESS IN PRODUCTION.

Awareness of the importance of environmental protection has led Vefer, a leading manufacturer of flexible polyurethane foam, to address this principle by looking to the future with positivity, making responsible and conscious production choices and paying attention to the “end of life” of products.

A fundamental key to recycling is to recover polyurethane.

METHOD AND PROCESS.

In the circular economy it is essential to have a complete approach to production that revolutionizes both products and processes; with chemical recycling it is possible to re-obtain the original polyols from products, thus returning to the raw materials used to produce polyurethane. This method makes it possible to obtain polyols with a reduced carbon footprint and suitable for re-use in the production of new polyurethanes.

PARTNERSHIPS AND SUSTAINABLE CHOICES.

Crucial to this process is the cooperation between the raw material suppliers, who guarantee the high quality of the recycled polyol, and Vefer’s technicians who manage the business processes.

In the production process, every aspect must take into account the environmental impact, starting with the materials used, which become the real protagonists.

Recovery of foams, conversion into new raw materials and reuse in the production process are the three major sustainable choices that point to a circular economy model for the future of a material that is still irreplaceable.
