Arredo, Porada apripista per l’India con la certificazione BIS
L’azienda di Como ottiene la BIS, dallo scorso febbraio obbligatoria per esportare nel Paese asiatico
Porada, an Italian furniture company founded in Como in 1968 by Luigi Allievi, has recently obtained the BIS (Bureau of India Standards) certification, required for all furniture exporters aiming to sell in India. Mauro Nastri, the export manager of Porada, joked about their decision, stating that they "like difficult bets." Achieving this certification, which proved to be a lengthy and costly process beyond the actual certification fees, involved testing all products at the factory level, including components such as screws and wooden dowels for furniture assembly.
Porada, present in India since 2010, is now working with dealers to ensure a smooth operation. The company sees this certification as a significant achievement and a new starting point for growth, as India remains a strategic market with great potential for the furniture sector, particularly during a time of closure or slowdown for many export countries.
