A new sustainable approach to the artisan tradition.
The company founded by Giuseppe Carpanelli in 1919 manufactures furniture and complementary furnishings that cater to the needs of the most demanding international clientele, by reinterpreting and innovating tradition through ongoing research, while privileging craftsmanship quality. Key aspects include manual abilities and expertise throughout all processes, careful selection of woods processed by expert hands down to the finest detail, and painting and finishing that rely on the most innovative and efficient coating products.
The Carpanelli family has always interpreted Italian craftsmanship with dedication and intelligence, winning it the trust and approval of its customers. Currently, the third generation—namely Giuseppe, Angelo and Daniele—seeks to renew the company’s range continuously by interpreting the new stylistic trends with products that reflect the changes in the market. The resulting innovation is extremely appealing aesthetically and boasts astonishing performances. The furnishings decorate the space with a sophisticated touch: matt finishes and surfaces with a soft feel combine on refined wood essences to trigger unique impressions that look naturally refined.
In its quest for visual appeal and ultimate performances, technology is increasingly required to satisfy sustainability criteria. By promoting an ethical approach to production that relies on the finest technologies available, with the use of our IRIDEA BIO wood coatings—formulated with raw materials deriving from recycled materials and produced with a lower environmental impact—we have started implementing a more efficient use of resources, adopting all suitable measures to limit the impact of our activities on the environment. That’s because investing in research today largely means adopting production processes that aid sustainable development, so that we can look forward to the future with enthusiasm.
According to our Technical and Sales Manager, Gilberto Pavanello, at the last edition of the Salone del Mobile trade fair in Milan: “Sustainability is emerging ever more as an indispensable value, the principle that guides consumer choices towards more responsible decisions. Since people are becoming increasingly environment-conscious, at the last Salone del Mobile trade fair Carpanelli chose to showcase furnishings coated with our BIO water-based products, created with formulations that utilize recycled raw materials and production processes with a reduced environmental impact. These innovations not only reduce polluting emissions but also testify to our tangible efforts in shaping a more conscious future.”
Today, the third generation with Daniele Carpanelli intends to build on the skills and vision of all previous generations, by charting growth and development paths that continue to reflect the company’s innovative streak.
“The Carpanelli style derives its distinctiveness from experimentation based on technical know-how in the processing of the most refined woods, which has been handed down for a century within the Carpanelli family. It is a combination of tradition and innovation rooted in the skilled use of materials that have come to define furniture elements with an up-to-date style that is respectful of the company’s origins. In pursuing this path, we are enthusiastic to grow and experiment new solutions with ICA, because we share the same innovative spirit and acute awareness to eco-sustainability principles—our beacons for the future. We regard ICA as a true partner with whom we have established a relationship based on trust, quality and service which generate extraordinary value. The sharing of know-how and advanced methodologies applied to everyday operations yields excellent results, besides favoring improvement and evolution. The effective synergy between teams fosters a beneficial relationship, which helps to generate truly innovative and integrated solutions capable of satisfying customer needs more rapidly and effectively. This, in turn, improves our capacity to compete.”
