New exhibitors and innovations at Texworld
Most of the exhibitors are from India, China, South Korea, Taiwan and Turkey, and 89% of visitors will come from overseas.
Exhibitors are increasingly adapting their product ranges to appeal to western tastes, with a particular emphasis on organic products and products made in an eco-friendly way. For this reason, many will present fabrics featuring soya, bamboo and chitosan (a material derived from the shells of crustaceans) alongside more traditional materials such as wool, cotton, silk, linen, viscose and polyester.
