This year’s fair will maintain its position as a leading trading platform in Asia for the fibres and yarn industry, showcasing the latest advancements and providing fairgoers with a comprehensive outlook on market trends, the fair organisers said in a press release.
Among all yarn and fabric innovations, sustainable and functional products will undoubtedly continue to be a key market theme this year. A 2021 report on Chinese consumer behaviour states that 89 per cent of respondents intended to buy sustainable products moving forward. Meanwhile, a recent study by Research and Markets showed that the market size for China’s functional apparel is projected to reach $52.5 billion by 2026 with a CAGR of 7.3 per cent. As a result, visitors will find a diverse range of dedicated materials at this year’s Yarn Expo Autumn, including recycled polyester filament yarns, recycled polyester colour yarns, recycled functional yarns, thermo regulating and anti-bacterial fibres and yarns and more.
Discussing the fair’s advantages, Wendy Wen, senior general manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, said, “Yarn Expo is not only an effective platform for showcasing textile innovations and accommodating different sourcing needs, but it’s also a much-needed trade fair for industry players to gather updates on market trends as well as exchange insights. Throughout the pandemic, the fair has continued to drive industry growth, providing a reliable source of business facilitation for the sector. We are very pleased that the autumn edition will be held this August and look forward to the valuable communication opportunities with participants from the entire textile value chain.”
“China’s latest Five-Year Plan has boosted the demand for high quality and sustainable products, which help promote our US cotton. There are high volumes of inquiries about organic imports as well as product origin and sustainability,” Shaoping Li, senior manager at Cotton Council International, said.
“We bought a number of anti-bacterial products to the fair. We connected with many visitors and the turnout was higher than I expected. I think environmental protection, sustainability, functionality and antibacterial aspects will be the key trends in the textile industry for the foreseeable future,” said Kent Wang, sales director of Shanghai Xinya New Material Technology Co Ltd.
The last edition of Yarn Expo Autumn welcomed 429 exhibitors from seven countries and regions, as well as over 13,000 decision makers who were sourcing in person. Continuing this success, the 2022 autumn fair will once again be held concurrently with Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Autumn Edition, Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition, PH Value and CHIC. Covering the entire textile supply chain, the fairs will create synergy effects to drive these industries forward.
Yarn Expo Autumn is organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd and the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT.
