ILVA Polimeri is involved in an on-going research process into innovative products with ever improving chemical and physical qualities, at one and the same time, offering ease of use and a very broad guarantee for the respect of Man's health and for the Environment.

This is what ILVA Polimeri does to achieve this:

- it co-operates with University Research Groups in defining particularly innovative technologies;
- it co-operates with the most important plant engineers to develop the latest generation application and drying systems.

Since ever the market's technological leader, ILVA Polimeri has, during recent years, developed innovative paint products, with maximum technological performance and minimum harmfulness, for use in highly specialised industrial systems using U.V. drying, and for applications with traditional systems.
These products - used by the most important names in the furniture and related articles production field - enable users to make articles with wood coating that guarantees optimal protection to the support while also ensuring no residual emissions of solvents into the environment.
Our company also makes great efforts in developing water-based products. In this sphere, we have developed innovative solutions applied to the furniture field, and also for protecting wood articles for outdoor use.
