U.S. – For its development of the Air hinge, Salice has been awarded the 2016 IWF Challengers’ Award, known throughout the world for recognizing the outstanding achievement of companies that distinguish themselves by developing technology, creativity and product innovation.

The award – in its 50th anniversary year – is given to the best products introduced during the International Woodworking Fair, one of the most important trade shows in the United States for companies in the woodworking, furniture and hardware industry.
