Participation in the European Commission Project: Cooperation for Consensus Standardisation & Interoperability to support e-commerce in the Furniture Sector.
In order to keep up with the emerging digital economy the furniture industry in Europe and other regions is seeking a universal agreement for data exchange between entities working in this sector. For this reason a Thematic Network “COFURN” (CO-operation for consensus, standardization and interoperability to support e-com services in the FURNiture sector) was established in 2001 linking key furniture related organisations such as manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, designers, industrial federations, software houses, R&D centres, universities and standardisation bodies to consider development of a global standard for data exchange in the furniture industry.
