The ICN’s numbers EMPLOYEES People who work for ICN have a variety of professional experiences. Everyone shares the same idea, the same will: to be able to take abroad our know-how, our companies’ qualities. The professional stories of the women and men who grow day by day inside our companies are ones in which they constantly pursue excellence. Our network represents an extraordinary gathering element, where different experiences and knowledge meet and blend, managing a heterogeneity of knowledge and solutions which are confidently provided by us, with our wealth of knowledge, compared to other more traditional manufacturing realities.
CONTINENTS The companies in our group have a long history that has led them to work in places all around the world for many years. This is proof of what we have learnt in collaborating with architects and contractors from many countries. We have learnt to organize shipments and to manage complex projects remotely and to face and solve any kind of problem on site. Our quality control procedures and our customer satisfaction have helped us to improve constantly; regarding post sale services, the distance is no issue.
WORKING AREA ICN has a strong manufacturing department which gives us the capacity to produce in a very short time a great dimensioned supply and at the same time to build customized elements with no limitation on quantity. This is possible thanks to the manufacturing characteristics of the companies which go from industrial manufacturing capacities to handicraft realities, which have the ability to produce even single bespoke pieces. All the commercial, technical, organizational and logistic operations are centralized; this allows us greater speed and precision in client requests and easy communication of client requirements to the different manufacturing units.
300 ARCHITECTURAL FIRMS Our activities apply in particular to architects. Working with them side by side, we have realized our most significant works. Together with them we have learnt and shared meticulous attention for every single detail. Thanks to them we have learnt the importance of the balance between function and aesthetics. Together we have experimented and researched new materials, shared the desire to use new finishing and realized original and alternative forms, and in continuous research, are always ready to accept any kind of challenge. For these professionals our technical office and our R&D unit are at their complete disposal in order to support them to express their creativity without limitation, always respecting the originality of the design, trying to guarantee, through team work, an additional value to the final result.
TURNOVER Our significant turnover guarantees that ICN has the necessary financial capability to comfortably handle substantial orders. Moreover, it allows us to invest in R&D activities, in communication and in technology. It is useful to dedicate resources to the research of new emergent markets and most of all to export and to let the value of Made in Italy (which is still our marking detail) be known.

Customer’s project You design and we manufacture: this is what we do. We have been cooperating with designers and architectural firms for a very long time, sharing a constant professional learning path. Our technical office and our R&D units are at your complete disposal in order to support your creativity, always respecting the originality of the design, trying to guarantee, with team work, an added value to the final result.
Preliminary technical analysis We take care of your ideas and designs and together we examine and study them, we analyze the technical and manufacturing issues, point out any potential issues, and suggest proper budgeting solutions.
Analytical cost quotation We well know the values of transparency and clarity, therefore we apply them when making price quotations which are consequently detailed and understandable and every single element of the project is dimensioned. Both terms of payment and shipment fees are detailed.
Drafting of the technical drawings We realize the manufacturing drawings of every single element of the order, based on the technical details of the designer. Jointly, we study precise solutions, pointing out anomalies or improvements, always keeping in mind your design and being aware of the importance of every detail.
Check of the technical drawings with the customers Before starting manufacturing, every technical drawing is shared, discussed and can be redrawn with the designer. Being aware of the importance of detail, we deeply want to understand your original idea, in order to manufacture exactly what you designed.
Quality control The quality control phase has a key importance in our organization: before shipping we double check all the elements, retracing and testing every detail in order to guarantee top quality.
Manufacturing supervision and respect of deadlines ICN manages all the phases of the supply chain, coordinating in-house and external suppliers, always keeping the stakeholders of the project updated, to ensure cost and quality. The ICN’s project managers are also in charge of delivery times and quality of the supply and maintain contact with their technical chief-site. Production engineers and skilled craftsmen transform and assemble every kind of material to create original and exclusive furniture.
Shipment and installation Our shipments respect the rules of secure packaging. All our orders are shipped in protected wooden crates that guarantee the integrity of even the most fragile material. The installation phase is executed by specialized and experienced teams led by ICN’s project manager, who communicates with the engineers and the local general contractor. Once the installation phase is completed, the installation manager interviews the designer and together they fill in an assessment paper, in order to verify the order.
Post sales service ICN furniture’s are covered by a two years guarantee on every element. Moreover, a timely and efficient post-sale service can assure the perfect functionality of the furnishing over time. 13

Lighting Designs
Lighting design a spatio-temporal design field. Both daylight and electric light are dynamic, and as we design their transitions over the course of the day and night and varying programs and seasons, you can say that we design in at least five dimensions. 75
