What’s your most important product?
Our top product is planks made with “briccole di Venezia”. These are stakes which have been spread in the Venetian lagoon and serve to define the navigable areas and to give information to sailors. The process we perform allow us to reuse the “exhausted briccole” completely. We are able to create elements for hard wood flooring, covering and pieces of furniture of great stability and dimensions of extraordinary beauty and quality. The European oak plants and the briccola planks are both certified “made in Italy” products and one of the briccola collection includes products with an international patent.
What’s your export percentage? Which countries do you mainly export to?
At the moment the business network abroad is limited to the USA and the Arab Emirates. These are two countries which have shown a remarkble interest in the “briccole” collections.
