A distinguishing feature of The High Technical Institute for Wood and Furniture sector is the solid partnership with local companies, and it provides a unique and significant study path at national level, with the aim to train specialized technicians able to satisfy the needs expressed by sectorial firms.

The owner, Fabrizio Grottaroli, the process and production manager Andrea Zenobi and marketing manager Luca Nicolini, guided the students throughout the visit, from the production plant to the marketing and sales offices, retracing the evolutions and changes regarding the processes and materials: this, allowed students to reinforce the theoretical notions with practical feedback.
