Two days of meetings, exchanges, and new perspectives at Interzum Forum Italy 2026 for Assopiuma.
On June 4–5, the Bergamo Fairgrounds hosted the leading international event for suppliers to the furniture, interior design, and upholstered furniture industries. The exhibition brought together companies, designers, buyers, and professionals from different countries, fostering dialogue on innovation, materials, and sustainability. For Assopiuma, participation represented a valuable opportunity to engage with industry professionals, confirming the growing interest in traceable, durable, and environmentally responsible materials.
Within the stand—conceived as a symbolic garden and designed by Ilaria Marelli, Assopiuma’s Art Director—the story of the feather and down lifecycle was presented. These are 100% natural materials that, at the end of their use, can return to nature without leaving harmful residues. A message that attracted significant attention and highlighted how the theme of the circular economy is now central to the future of furniture and bedding. During the event, Assopiuma also showcased its certifications, which guarantee the traceability, quality, and transparency of its fillings, highlighting the work of an Italian manufacturing sector that combines craftsmanship, research, and environmental responsibility. Thanks to laboratory testing and the certificate of compliance issued by Hohenstein, 100% natural feathers and downare recognized as biodegradable and compostable, providing a concrete response to the challenges of material circularity and end-of-life management.
A special thank you goes to everyone who visited the stand and shared ideas, projects, and perspectives. Assopiuma will continue working to promote the culture of natural fillings and to support an increasingly transparent and responsible supply chain.
