Eumabois, goodbye and thank you to Fulvia Scherini

08/11/2011

A long career serving woodworking technology, and mostly supporting and promoting the activity of Eumabois, the federation that gathers 14 European national associations. A sign of recognition and appreciation was due for the work done by Mrs. Fulvia Scherini, a homage paid during the recent general assembly of the European Federation, held in Valencia during Fimma-Maderalia.

Born in Sondrio, Fulvia Scherini graduated in Foreign Languages and Literature, then in May 1980 she joined Acimall, the association of Italian manufacturers of woodworking machinery and accessories. In Acimall, she covered different positions, until she became Head of the Promotion Department. Finally, she dedicated full-time to the general secretariat of Eumabois.

In both positions, she promoted technology and associations all over the world, a task she carried out with great professionalism.

Franz-Josef Buetfering, President of Eumabois, expressed his appreciation for Mrs. Scherini’s work. “On behalf of Eumabois and myself, I want to thank Fulvia Scherini for the competence and passion she devoted to European wood technology”, he said in Valencia. “She served not only with professionalism and competence, but also with the passion that distinguishes people who believe in what they do and commit themselves to the success of a project and other people”.

“I know my words may seem banal”, concluded Buetfering, addressing the representatives of 14 European associations. “It’s hard to find a way to describe the accurate and proactive contribution Mrs. Scherini has given to our federation.So, I won’t add anything else and I will give her a tight hug on behalf of all of you and everyone who had the pleasure to work with her, asking you to join me with a round of applause”.
