ASSI DEL CANSIGLIO. FAGGIO RINASCIMENTO

Craftsmanship MADE in ITALY Assi del Cansiglio Assi del Cansiglio is a large prefinished three-layer planking, ideal for floors, dropped ceilings and cladding, handmade with artisan techniques and treated with eco-friendly water-based varnish and adhesive. The exposed layer is in noble beech wood from the Cansiglio Forest, which is PEFC certified. This is a totally Italian project, from raw material to production. It is a locally sourced product, because the Cansiglio Forest is located only 25 kilometres away from the production plants of Itlas, which has strongly wanted this project, a very ambitious entrepreneurial challenge born from a synergy between a private company and the public body which supervises the Veneto forests.

How is the market doing? What are your prospects for 2020?

Company profile Born at the start of the Eighties, today Itlas is the leading Italian company in the production of prefinished two and three-layer wood floors. Led by Patrizio dei Tos, the company has its legal and productive headquarters in Cordignano, in the Treviso province, and has based its business on attention for the environment, starting from researching a raw material which is rigidly controlled: the wood used comes from controlled forests which are managed in a correct and responsible way. www.itlas.com

As far as our company is concerned, my forecast for 2020 are strictly connected to what we have done during 2019. We have worked hard on foreign markets, both to increase our presence where we already are and to enter new ones. On the Italian side, our company is committed to maintain the sales volumes we have already reached up to now. We therefore hope for a favourable trend in export, even in two figures.

Timba Professional wood sanding machine with planetary head TIMBA can do – on any type of wood floor – jobs that traditionally are made with three different machines: • it smoothes like a traditional belt sanding machine; • it finishes the floor like a mono-brush; • it sands up to the skirting borders of the walls like a edge machine.

With TIMBA an unrivaled floor planarity can be achieved thanks to its planetary system.

The 360° multi-directional wheels allow to move the machine in any direction even very close along the border. Work is faster and cost efficient. It is easy to use and doesn’t need special training like the belt sanding machines. Free of dust thanks to the improved vacuum system.

ANGELO GIANGIULIO, PRODUCT MANAGER WOODEN FLOORING MAPEI

How is the market doing? What are your prospects for 2020?

In Italy, 2019 was a fluctuating year but it will close positively, while on the main European markets we ran very well. It is difficult to predict 2020, there are too many different situations and, even assuming that business will have a positive conclusion, it is very difficult to estimate the length of time it will take.

The new frontier of SINGLE-DISC orbital machines TMB was founded in Codogno (Lodi – Italy) in 1980 as a manufacturer of dry/wet vacuum cleaners and carpet cleaners. The manufacturing site was then relocated to Guardamiglio, also in the province of Lodi. Giancarlo Ruffo, owner of Comac, became interested in the company and acquired it in September 2000. In February 2001, his son – Giampaolo – was appointed to the position of TMB’s General Manager. His task was that of setting clear goals for the company, redefining its mission, strengthening its competitive advantage and widening its product offering. In 2006 the manufacturing plant and the company’s offices were relocated by a few miles to another, larger and more comfortable site in Cerca, still within the Guardamiglio Municipality. Now employing approximately thirty employees, apart from continuing to manufacture professional and industrial single-phase/

three-phase dry/wet vacuum cleaners, TMB branched out in the car wash sector. The company’s growth meant constantly looking for new markets, developing vertical product ranges that become gradually specialised and targeted to specific client groups. Commercial and professional vacuum cleaners, primarily aimed at cleaning companies, are manufactured leveraging the two main production lines; another department focuses on industrial appliances and “Self” machines for car washes. The company’s main markets are European countries and the USA, but TMB is also gaining ground on the French, German, Scandinavian and Eastern European markets. In September 2011, the company finally relocated to the Ruffo family’s historical manufacturing site in via Ca’ Nova Zampieri in San Giovanni Lupatoto, just outside Verona. www.tmbvacuum.com

How is the market doing? What are your prospects for 2020?

The market is doing quite well. The Made in Italy of professional cleaning is characterized in the world by reliability, elegance of design and richness of the range. TMB continues to focus on innovation, quality, ergonomics and sustainability: all the models of our highly successful orbital single disc machines are very versatile in their applications and therefore suitable for use in different types of environment. 2018 has seen us dynamic and particularly competitive: we have recorded many positive signals also in 2019, so we believe that 2020 can maintain a trend that can give us great satisfaction.

TOR LINE – RECOMMENDED FOR DEEP CLEANING, TREATMENTS AND NONROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS. SINGLE OR DUAL SPEED MODELS. SUCTION KIT AVAILABLE FOR WOOD FLOOR SANDING. AN IMPORTANT FEATURE IS THE QUICK RELEASE OF THE MOTOR BASE FROM THE CHASSIS, QUICK RELEASE OF THE 17-KG WEIGHT, AND QUICK DISCONNECTION OF ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FOR EASE OF TRANSPORT

In the last four years, TMB has invested in the development of orbital technology applied to single-disc machines and today it is able to offer a complete range alongside the traditional machines. After the successful TOR 43 came the TFO 43 and TFO 50, the latest models to complete the range, positioned between the daily maintenance machines and those for the heaviest jobs. The use of orbital technology provides excellent stability, ease of use and great maneuverability, even for less experienced operators. With a weight between 50 and 56 kg the TFO models are able to perform various types of interventions, from daily cleaning to background cleaning, from de-waxing to crystallization and polishing. In addition, the possibility of connecting the machine to a suction unit further expands the fields of use: detecting and restoring the parquet without dust and reducing work times in marble detection and polishing. TFO retains all the advantages of rotary-orbital devices such as: energy savings, water and detergent savings and mainly savings in man hours.

Assi del Cansiglio is a flooring made of Italian Beech, cut from the Cansiglio Forest, the ancient "bosco da reme" (wood for oars) of the Serenissima Republic of Venice. Unique and inimitable for its quality, beauty and

preciousness of materials, Assi del Cansiglio has become a symbol of Italian excellence, of Veneto excellence, of 100% Made in Italy, of sourced flooring (or better, as we prefer to say, of "25 km away" sourced flooring).

Assi del Cansiglio is a floor made saving CO2 healthy, steady, patented. A forest must be cared for. This is the only way to love it truly.

Today, when you buy Assi del Cansiglio you actually take part in the rebirth of the woodland.
