FederlegnoArredo Appoints Elia Vismara as New President
FederlegnoArredo, the Italian federation representing woodworking and furniture industries, has nominated Elia Vismara as its new president. He will replace Claudio Feltrin after an election process on October 27 in Milan. If confirmed, his term is expected to last until 2030. Vismara currently leads Vismaravetro, a family-owned firm specializing in custom glass shower enclosures and bathroom systems since its founding in 1947. He has also served on FederlegnoArredo's events committee since 2021 and previously chaired Assobagno from 2020. Feltrin, who led the federation through challenges including the pandemic and rising tariffs, emphasized workforce training initiatives such as the Territorial Pact for Skills. Vismara aims to build on this by forming a new team focused on strengthening membership across Italy's wood-furniture supply chain.
