SamuVetro 2002 report

This event was mainly directed towards the flat glass sector, from equipment to accessories and tools.

Addressed to architects, engineers, glaziers and professionals in the building, furniture and manufacturing industries, Samuvetro reflects the trends within the national and international markets through the participation of some between the main Italian companies and technical conferences involving experienced professionals and covering current topics in construction and interior architecture.

Samuvetro has also registered the increase in the consumption of glass by the furniture industry, which has in the Region around Pordenone the major manufacturing area in Italy. The fair has also also granted an important contribution to the construction industry, which is growing at a very interesting rate not only in the North East of Italy but above all in Former Jugoslavia Countries, from where a number of dealers and manufacturers came to Pordenone visiting Samuvetro.

The next 2004 event, scheduled on the month of May, promises to be even more complete with special sections dedicated to exhibitors who supply glass to the furniture and construction industry, and exhibitors manufacturing glass furniture.
