This variety of the offer don't characterises only the materials and the modern methods of production introduced in fair, but also the trends and the visions for the future furnishing environments.
Also this year the Piazza “innovation of interior“, prepared at the hall 4.2, will be source of ideas and point of meeting for architects, designers and planners. For interzum 2017 have been selected a theme that, according to experts opinion, it will be the driving force for the innovation in the next decades:
“Upcycling and sustainable materials cycles“, namely the transformation of residual materials in new products.
One of the greatest challenges that are born with the thick growth of the world population is how we can manage the available resources. Since their availability is limited, it is necessary a reconsideration. Reducing the demand of consumers could be a solution, but the most realistic answer is a change in the industrial production of closed loop materials. Producers and planners are working on  upcycling innovative processes, able to reduce notably the use of resources and energy at all levels. Ideally, at the end of life cycle, it should not be produced refuses, but o the contrary materials of high quality that can be recycled for a new life cycle. Recycling becomes upcycling, the refuses become recycling materials with their specific qualities for the innovative planning of product.
Among the other themes of great interest developed at interzum we  find for example the maintenance of resources, the sustainability and the increasing digitisation of home environments. Thanks to its innovative power interzum catalyses the interest of the creative professions.
