GRUPPO MAURO SAVIOLA The Saviola Group is a vertically integrated industrial system capable of achieving many firsts in the various markets in which it competes, both in terms of production volumes and of technologies employed. The secret of this success begins in 1963. When the word “ecology” was far from being on everyone’s lips, the founder had the pioneering idea of recovering and enhancing scrap wood, i.e. giving new life to what was hitherto seen only as waste, as something to be discarded. The idea is that even the wood of an old cabinet may become the basis for a new cabinet, through a potentially infinite repeatable cycle. That first idea was followed by others: create a nationwide network for the collection of wood; produce panels using only post-consumer wood; develop resins, unique in the world for their reduced environmental impact; produce clean energy from the processes. And today The Saviola Group synergistically integrates several national and international companies focused on three worlds: wood, chemical, and furniture. The consolidated turnover of the Group has placed it for years among the top Italian industrial realities and among the leaders in the world in its sectors.
