Dyes focus for October’s Performance Days

09/07/2024
German trade fair Performance Days has announced the topic for its autumn show: Colourisation – Chemistry is Everywhere.

This year's fair seeks "environmentally friendly alternatives" to textile dyeing to reduce impact, said organisers.

For the first time, a dedicated central theme has been defined for the footwear sector: innovative alternatives for manufacturing waterproof shoes.

Marco Weichert, CEO of Performance Days, said: "With this year's focus topic, we aim to encourage the industry to take new paths and drive sustainable innovations. Colorisation is not just a technical issue but also a creative one, with great potential for an eco-friendlier future.”

The show will be held on October 23-24 in Munich.
