The sixth edition of the Texhibition Istanbul Fabric, Yarn and Textile Accessories Fair on 11-13 September presented 539 exhibitors, showcasing the entire range of textile suppliers from the fields of woven and knitted fabrics, accessories, yarns and artificial leather. A separate area for denim, the BlueBlackDenim hall, was also on stage for the second time.

“With this edition of Texhibition, we welcomed a total of over 130,000 visitors,” says Ahmet Öksüz, Chairman of the Board of the Istanbul Textile Exporters Association. “The fair is of great importance for our industry to stabilize and expand the global supply chain. In a very short space of time, Texhibition has established itself in the international trade fair calendar and has become one of the largest in its sector in Europe.”

Continuous investment in research and development is leading to ever-improving production methods and new material developments in Turkey. Many Turkish textile manufacturers have also started to switch their production to biodegradable and recycled materials.

Texhibition Istanbul once again brought together all aspects of the textile industry and offered a comprehensive overview of all product groups in the textile preliminary stage. The focus was on quality, innovation, current trends and sustainable production, including water-saving dyeing techniques, energy-efficient production facilities, and recycling processes for textile waste.

The trade show’s seminar and workshop programme comprised 11 events over the three days covering a wide range of topics. The Texhibition Trend Area, meanwhile, highlighted themes for the coming a/w 25/26 season, while the Innovation Hub inspired visitors with innovative projects such as an illuminated dress and a self-warming jacket. The Innovation Hub was also a showcase for the latest developments in the world of organic, sustainable, recycled and ecological fabrics.
