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 2022: functional exhibition spaces and a new digital dimension
Preparations continue for Xylexpo 2022, the biennial world exhibition of woodworking technologies and components for the furniture industry, to be held in Milan from 12 to 15 October.

Xylexpo exhibitors will have at their disposal pavilions 22-24 of Rho Fieramilano, the exhibition area which, in addition to functional structures capable of ensuring total usability of the spaces, guarantees perfect integration with the private and public transport system.

 

Digital Signage to enhance the digital dimension

Thanks to the huge investments in technologies, Fieramilano Rho will offer exhibitors top-level equipment and services within the exhibition area and "outside it" through the enhancement of the digital dimension. The main objective of Fieramilano is in fact to optimize the interaction between exhibitors and visitors by trying to provide visitors with as much information as possible through Digital Signage. This new video promotion system, distributed throughout the exhibition center, includes various services that will be available during Xylexpo such as the streaming of all the events organized in the common areas and the new app that can be downloaded for free from the “online stores” of the event.

 

The new interactive digital platform Expo Plaza

There is also the new interactive digital platform Expo Plaza, Fieramilano's flagship project, with which exhibiting companies will be able to best present their offer, gather contacts, organize appointments. The platform also includes video chat with potential operators and demonstration webinars broadcast in streaming, in response to the growing need to combine the physical dimension of the event with the digital one, capable of extending the event beyond its geographical and temporal boundaries. The digital platform will obviously also have an interface dedicated to visitors, through which they can easily consult the online catalog of the event, contact exhibitors directly, register and attend the various webinars organized by the companies.
