The goal is to create a collaborative environment rather than a competitive one, with the aim of benefiting the entire Asian textile industry”.

Alexandro Barberis Canonico President Milano UnicaAlexandro Barberis Canonico, President, Milano Unica, on impact of the pandemic on the textile industry and the return of Milano Unica to the Intertextile Shanghai fair.

Creativity and sustainability are important factors for Italian manufacturers, who are investing in the Chinese market. The exhibition response has been positive, with better figures than in 2019. The trends in the Chinese market are about functional fabrics and the use of natural fibers”.

The weak yen has made exporting raw materials to China and other countries less profitable, while importing goods has become expensive. The tourism industry has also been affected, with only wealthy tourists able to travel to Japan, international tourism can help the domestic market to some extent, but it is not enough to fully recover”.
