\u201cIt is really a great pleasure to see you again here, today, at Sicam: a strong sign that the season we have all lived is finally ending and we can finally look at the future with renewed enthusiasm\u201d.<\/em>It is with these words that Franco Bulian<\/strong>\u2013 head director of Catas<\/strong>, the most important European testing and certification laboratory for the wood and furniture sector \u2013 opened the press conference organized in Pordenone, inside Sicam, the exhibition of components and fittings for the furniture industry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A period, the current one, in which the strongly diversified furniture universe is experiencing a very positive season<\/strong>, with a double-digit growth involving all furniture segments, a trend that all observers indicate \u201csteadily growing\u201d in global terms until 2027.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A strong demand, therefore, but which today more than ever is \u201cconditioned\u201d by specific requirements: \u201cdurable\u201d products<\/strong>, which guarantee to maintain their performance for a long time; safe products<\/strong>for everyone, capable of guaranteeing the necessary confidence in any place and for any end-use need. Products that are increasingly associated with the brand<\/strong>, with the \u201cname\u201d of the producer, which is more and more synonymous of reliability, confidence, trust… all values \u200b\u200bthat tests, analyses and product certifications \u2013 hence the Catas activities \u2013 make objective. And \u2013 last but not least \u2013 products that are \u201cenvironmentally friendly\u201d<\/strong>, which from their design until their disposal at the end of their life cycle, prove to be environmentally friendly, require the least possible use of energy and resources.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Values \u200b\u200bto which consumers all over the world are showing increasing attention, a trend that has a decisive and positive influence on Catas activities, whose economic indicators show a continuous growth also for 2021. According to initial estimates, the current year will tendentially close with a turnover increase<\/strong>of about 6 percent, with a further growth in the number of tests carried out for the more than 2 thousand Catas customers<\/strong>in 65 Countries<\/strong>around the world, in a ranking that lists that shows, behind Italy, Poland, Romania, Germany, Slovakia, Lithuania, China, Portugal, Hungary and Russia.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A growth that has convinced the Catas Board of Directors to launch new significant investments<\/strong>: a new three-storey building<\/strong>will be built in the headquarters of San Giovanni al Natisone (Udine), 2,400 square meters that will allow to host new laboratories to enhance many activities. The \u201cTesting 4.0\u201d platform<\/strong>will also be further strengthened, a real network that for several months has now allowed the over 100 test stations<\/strong>operating 24 hours a day to be managed in real time in the San Giovanni and in Catas Brianza offices<\/strong>, the headquarters of Lissone, in the heart of a furniture district famous all over the world.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A desire to be closer and more integrated into the most important Italian \u201cfurniture districts\u201d that Catas has confirmed with the opening of the first \u201cCatas Point\u201d in Pesaro<\/strong>, in collaboration with Manifaktura.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A growth that also passes through the new services<\/strong>that the laboratory offers, such as the \u201cRisk Assessment\u201d of furniture including electrified ones, those that contains systems activated or used thanks to the presence of electric devices.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is also a significant increase in all the training activities that are part of \u201cCatas Academy\u201d<\/strong>, a growing demand for opportunities for in-depth studies and knowledge that are articulated \u2013 according to the needs of the applicants \u2013 in the Catas laboratories, in the classrooms, online or even in companies: a total of more than 50 courses will be held this year for over 300 hours of training<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Catas does not just \u201cmeasure\u201d products or performances but \u2013 in the light of a request for real \u201cquality certificates\u201d<\/strong>of which users or end consumers can immediately understand the value \u2013 is expanding its business in product certification. Through the \u201cCatas Quality Award\u201d<\/strong>the Institute testifies the formaldehyde emissions of wood-based panels, the quality of coatings, the adhesion performance of glue lam beams and the safety of playgrounds surfaces. A specific certification is the one dedicated to the designation of the \u201cMade in Italy\u201d origin and quality. An increasingly significant activity, which will be furtherly promoted with a new and specific website<\/strong>by the end of this year.<\/p>\n
