Insights from the show floor

“Chinese market demand for natural fibres keeps increasing, with high-end precious fibres gaining more favour. Consumers are placing value on products that are luxurious but also sustainable, easy to wear, and comfortable. Especially in the past two years, we have connected with many new clients at Intertextile, particularly from the online sector. This fair’s value to our business development is truly irreplaceable.”
Mr Andrea Rossi, CEO, Lanificio Luigi Colomo S.p.A, Italy (Exhibitor)

“Upon arriving, we were deeply impressed, especially with the fair’s enormous scale. Our focused visits to exhibitors’ booths and venue exploration have yielded fruitful results, while the centralised display model enabled us to efficiently connect with suppliers, quickly assess cooperation potential, and complete industry exchange.”
