Mr. Derek Bauer, Member of the Board of Messe Frankfurt Group, emphasized: “Both fairs were more lively and larger than ever, and the growth in the number of exhibitors and visitors proved that only trade fairs with such a global reach and deep heritage can showcase textile innovations benefiting a wide range of industries in a one-stop-shopping manner. Together, the two trade fairs promote the textile industry as a catalyst for cross-border transformation and lead the future development of the global economy.”
Around 75% of the visitor group - covering manufacturers, engineers from all fields, architects, processors, industrial designers, manufacturers of clothing and construction materials, R&D decision-makers, medical developers, product developers and other top executives - effectively utilized the two concurrent fairs to both explore the diversity of textiles at Techtextil and experience advanced sewing and processing technology at Texprocess. The synergy between the two fairs not only builds bridges for international cooperation and business exchange, but also provides a strong impetus for innovation in various fields and lays a solid foundation for bringing products to market.
