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.

Innovative wall coverings X-KIN® by FENIX: new perspectives for interior design
Arpa and FENIX® together with Getacore®, Homapal® and X-KIN® are present at Sicam 2022 (Hall 9, stand A20 and B17) where they present new product and material developments within two multifaceted exhibition spaces.

On display X-KIN® by Fenix, a flexible surface that can be applied on walls and structural elements, such as pillars and columns, in the same way as wallpaper.

The result of a profound technological evolution of design surfaces, X-KIN offers innovative wall coverings that add new perspectives to interior design.

 

Four exclusive shades

Extremely opaque thanks to low light reflection, anti-fingerprint, incredibly soft to the touch and with excellent color fastness to light, X-KIN maintains the main characteristics that have made FENIX a unique material for durability and innovation.

Also in terms of color, the new surfaces are inspired by the iconic palette of FENIX materials, available in four exclusive shades: Jaipur Red, Comodoro Green, London Gray and Bromo Gray. A color palette that allows you to design with reassuring and timeless colors.
 

High aesthetic and tactile qualities

Thanks to its proprietary technology, X-KIN combines aesthetic beauty and exclusive technical performance, amplifying the creative potential of the FENIX system through the multiple combinations of its innovative surfaces.

In this way, it is possible to experiment freely and in harmony with the X-KIN and FENIX materials, playing with colors and combining horizontal and vertical, sinuous and straight surfaces, in multiple combinations.

X-KIN by FENIX is available in rolls of 1.3 meters and 10.05 meters, which can be purchased exclusively online at www.fenixforinteriors.shop.
