since the last issue, “Itlas magazine” has been printed on a new type of paper which is totally ecological and certied. This choice is in line with the ethos of the company which now wishes to have only those operators by its side that are able to take a new direction, in tune with its choices.

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certication Achieving qualications to be always the most competitive on the market On the last 22nd April the Certication Committee of ICILA – the Italian leader in furnishing and wood certications – deliberated the concession of the FSCCOC certicate to Itlas with the number ICILA-COC-000339.

If we concentrate our attention on this last gure regarding Italy, it is important to highlight the strong acceleration the FSC-COC certicate has had in our country over the last couple of years, with a growth of no less than 45% during 2008 and a stunning 60% in 2009. In the current year, the tendency mirrors what has been happening up to the present. It is also important to give a geographic location to the certication’s growth: most of the companies are based in the North, particularly in the Lombardia region and the North-East, although in the last year and a half there has been an...
