As the global demand for eco-friendly products continues to rise, the Yarn Expo Autumn 2024 is set to showcase innovative and sustainable yarns and fibres. Taking place from August 27-29 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, this year's expo promises to build on the momentum from the successful 2024 spring show.
The expo, running concurrently with Intertextile Apparel, CHIC, and PH Value, will bring together the entire textile value chain. This comprehensive gathering fosters industry growth through active business exchanges and insights. The global textile yarn market, projected to reach US $17.87 billion by 2031 according to Verified Market Research, underscores the importance of events like Yarn Expo in driving industry advancements.
Exhibitors from China, France, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Pakistan, Singapore, Turkiye, Vietnam, and more have already confirmed their participation. Part of Messe Frankfurt’s Texpertise Network, the expo aligns with the ‘Econogy’ initiative, emphasizing eco-friendly practices across more than 50 global textile trade shows. The event will feature high-traffic areas like the Trend Forum, multiple fringe events, product showcases, and business matching sessions, all with a strong focus on sustainability.
Reflecting on last year's success, Mani Kant, Director of BishnuTexportPvt. Ltd., India, praised Yarn Expo as an excellent platform for sourcing sustainable and biodegradable products. He highlighted the expo's effectiveness in meeting potential suppliers and staying updated on new trends, noting that it saves both time and money.
The 2024 spring fair welcomed nearly 22,000 buyers from 107 countries and regions, with 515 exhibitors from 11 countries. Regenerated, cotton, and synthetic products were the top categories, highlighting the industry's shift towards sustainability.
Organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd and the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT, Yarn Expo Autumn 2024 aims to maximize business opportunities by integrating the fibre, yarn, apparel fabrics, fashion, and knitted garments industries under one roof.
