Consortium Italy), was founded in 1982 by a group of italian firms
all aiming to achieve a high level of qualification in the sector
of the Mouldings and Frames industry. Particularly it aims to offer
firms quality production criteria to satisfy the user requirements.
The aims are professional ones, and the firms belonging to the
Consortium have long experience and a good reputation; they represent
the majority of national production from a quantitative point of view
and the best from a qualitative pont of view. These are valid reasons
why CON.COR should act as a leading and qualifying organism for the
italian Mouldings and Frames industry.

Consortium is a non profitmaking organization and intends to provide
for development of exports of the small and medium sized industries and

woodem shaped pieces and similar items, according to law no. 83/1989,
and to promote system of collective importation, dealing with supply
of the raw materials, the semifinished pieces, the machinery and the
work instruments necessary.
It therefore establishes that it will:
organize the collection of information from the Consortium members
and give them proper assistance for all their needs in terms of
increasing exportation;
deal upon the request of those interested with the initiatives and
activities regarding exports by the individual firms belonging to the
Consortium;
