Graduated in Juridical, Economic and in Banking sciences, having acquired a great experience in several public bodies, institutes and companies, Piu is the first woman called to lead the Italian laboratory, a prestigious position in which she will be supported by Franco Buttazzoni (Blifase, Corno di Rosazzo), Federica Di Fonzo (Frag, Pradamano), Stefano Petris (Wolf, Sauris) and Paola Veronese (Otto, Udine).

“I assume the important Catas presidency with full attention to the relevance of the role it has towards the entire national and international market”, commented Lucia Cristina Piu. “Thanks to the shareholders for their trust, my first thoughts go to my predecessor, Bernardino Ceccarelli, who successfully guided Catas even during a difficult period. My commitment will be to give continuity and enhance the service activity for companies inside and outside the national borders”.

The following three years will surely represent an intense season for Catas, which has just celebrated the 50th anniversary of its foundation, showing a significant 12 per cent growth in the number of tests carried out in the last three years, despite the dramatic fire that completely destroyed the Furniture Laboratory, rebuilt and inaugurated last December.
