Energy and the Environment

FIAM, situated at Cimadolmo in the province of Treviso, is a company that since 1983 has based its growth and innovation on skilled manufacturing of components and interior design furniture products in wood, MDF, veneer and plywood.

Added to this is sensitivity towards environmental issues, which has led us to renew our tools and machinery in a drive for more efficient energy in all areas of FIAM's facilities.

Our emphasis on energy savings in the production of wood semi-finished parts and furniture also stems from a rural setting on the banks of the River Piave, where our facilities have stood since 1983.

Our care for the environment encouraged us to implement an ambitious project that at the end of 2017 allowed us to save 150,000 Kwh p.a., and reduce our carbon footprint by 50 tonnes of CO2 equivalent, so contributing to improving the quality of the environment in which our company operates.

We have embarked on a path not just to improve our energy efficiency, but also to seek certified materials. For our components we choose the best quality wood that can be traced through careful control of its use while protecting the environment.

We pay attention not only to the environment, but also to human health. We select our suppliers carefully and opt for eco-compatible solutions for the manufacture of both small batches and large quantities, implement energy-saving processes and keep a close watch on our carbon footprint.

In 2018 the suction plant at FIAM's Cimadolmo facilities was radically modified in the carpentry and cnc department and the illumination system was updated with LED lighting, to meet our energy saving objectives.

Our professional production team for wood components and interior design complements for the furniture industry has always been aimed at offering top quality and protecting the Nature  surrounding us.

Thanks to the new suction system with inverter technology, we have achieved significant progress in efficiency, enhancing the quality of the finished product. The more effective the suction, the better the aesthetic finish of the sanded surface.

This intervention has also improved the healthiness of the working environment, further protecting the operators' health and reducing cleaning costs.

As a result, we have obtained the Fire Prevention Certificate with an excellent level of safety.

The new system, connected to the Industry 4.0 network, interacts with the entire system both in case of anomalies and when discharging sawdust.

In 2023, FIAM's photovoltaic system actively contributed to environmental protection by saving 10.47 TOE* (tonnes of oil equivalent) of primary energy and preventing the emission of 14,578 kg of CO2.
Our sustainability performance index improves every year, highlighting our concrete commitment to the environment. At FIAM, it is essential to implement a virtuous and sustainable management of waste and industrial scraps: in 2023, the percentage of waste sent for recovery was 65% (compared to 56% in 2022).

Our green setting at Cimadolmo is important for FIAM. That's why our interior design items production supply chain uses 100% FSC® solid wood and other FSC Mix products. Our team comprises experienced, skilled carpenters who believe in the quality of hand working each single piece, and an expert work force to guarantee the best solutions for a quality, functional product. They are the ones who choose the best FSC® certified European timber for our products, i.e. wood from certified forests where trees felled for timber are replaced.

In the beginning there was only wood, but over time our experience has led us to other materials, broadening our production range and making us a reliable partner for complements and interior design.
Furniture products in veneer, MDF, plywood and veneered aluminium, all with the excellent finishes that represent the flair of things made in Italy.
