Furniture industry at dawn of new era, says Lectra
03/07/2019
In the keynote presentation, delivered jointly by Lectra and by Milan-based furniture industry market research provider CSIL, delegates heard that Industry 4.0, changes in the retail environment, high demand for customisation and concerns about sustainability are “driving furniture companies to reinvent themselves and their processes”.
In response to this, the technology provider has combined its Made To Order furniture application with a new tool called Made To Customize in a package it has called Furniture On Demand.
More specifically for companies producing leather-upholstered furniture, it said the release of the 2019 version of its Versalis digital leather cutting solution can provide a significant improvement in productivity.
“The furniture industry is at the dawn of an era rich in opportunity,” said Lectra’s chief marketing and communications officer, Céline Choussy, after the event.
