| Heimtextil 2017: Almost fully booked eight months before the start Heimtextil, the industry's most important global event for interior textiles, interior design and interior trends, is already completely fully booked on many hall levels around eight months before it is due to begin. The number of stand registrations for the upcoming event (10-13 January 2017) already signals that there will be an increase in the number of exhibitors and exhibition space thanks both to new registrations as well as exhibitors looking to expand their existing stands. Heimtextil is particularly pleased about the numerous registrations from European exhibitors who want to showcase their quality products. For many exhibitors, attending the international world leading trade fair has a considerable impact on their success over the coming season – whether this is because of the orders they receive, the establishing and maintaining of contacts or the garnering of inspiration for their own new concepts. Exhibiting companies profit from the long-standing expertise and positive image of the event, which draws key players and decision-makers from across the world to Frankfurt every year. 'We work continually on developing the trade fair and are always in close contact with the industry', says Olaf Schmidt, Vice President Textiles & Textile Technologies at Messe Frankfurt. 'The excellent situation with registrations clearly shows that we are on the right track and just how important Heimtextil is as an international world-leading trade fair for the industry. With its new products and trends, it kicks off the upcoming season and is an indispensable platform for companies and trade visitors alike, from purchasers and designers to interior decorators, hoteliers and architects'. Brand names from across the world and growing product areas Exhibitors who have already registered for a stand include well-known mattress suppliers such as Frankenstolz and Technogel Italia and renowned bedding companies such as Lefebvre Textile and Manterol. In the growing area of decorative fabrics, many new companies from Belgium and the USA in particular have registered, including Bru Textiles, B&T Textilia, Burlington Technologies, P. Kaufmann, Van Moele Weavers and Weverij van Neder. Areas enjoying considerable growth also include table linen in hall 9.0, where new exhibitors such as Danto di Popolla Daniele from Italy, Sav. Chatziargiriou & SIA EE and Yioi Theof Mavropoulou OE from Greece, as well as Multitablecloth & Bed from Portugal, have registered. Digital printing with growth potential in a new location in hall 6.0 With a new location in hall 6.0, the field of digital printing once again has more space in which to expand. Leading printer manufacturers from across the world will present their innovations and technologies in the field of textiles here.

SPG Print will also once again be present in the "Digital Print" area in hall 6.0. Successful "Theme Park" concept will be realised by the world's oldest trend agency Carlin International in 2017 For the third time in a row, Heimtextil will present the "Theme Park" trend section. Under the management of Exalis, experts from the French trend agency Carlin International will showcase 2017/2018 trends in various themed worlds during the trade fair itself. Interested parties can get an initial impression of the current trends in advance of the trade fair from the website www.heimtextil-theme-park.com. Its trailblazing realisation of trends means that trade visitors thoroughly enjoy visiting the Theme Park and it is first on the list of places to go at the trade fair. The inspirational area in the centrally situated hall 6.0 is decorated with textiles by Heimtextil exhibitors whose products can be ordered directly on site at the trade fair. This year's motto "Explorations" takes visitors on a spectacular journey of discovery for the senses. Driven by the vision of reinvigorating our scientific curiosity, the Theme Park showcases a variety of innovative materials, textures and new patterns and invites visitors to see the rest of the trade fair through fresh eyes. Sustainability on the go at Heimtextil Heimtextil will continue to place a strong focus on the future-oriented topic of sustainability as a point of orientation and source of inspiration: hall 8.0 will once again be the home of the "Green Village" at the 2017 event. In addition to numerous free expert presentations, trade visitors will also be given the opportunity to talk to seal awarders and certifiers and enjoy mutual discussions. The "Green Tour" will be back by popular demand. This guided tour of the entire trade fair stops at stands belonging to companies that appeal because of their particularly sustainable products and concepts. write your comments about the article :: © 2016 Exhibition News :: home page |
