As part of its diverse product showcases, the fair underlined its commitment to the industry’s eco transition, with numerous exhibitors highlighting sustainable and innovative materials. Supplementing the trade on the show floor, the fringe programme provided valuable insights and trend exchange, cementing the fair’s role as a platform that fuels global dialogue, cultivates fresh ideas, and drives the textile industry forward.

All-in-one sourcing platform for the latest trends and developments

Spanning both its exhibitor lineup and a diverse visitor base, Yarn Expo Autumn showcased impressive breadth. Across six product zones and the International Yarn Zone, a wide range of suppliers presented a versatile mix of natural fibres, innovative synthetics, speciality yarns, and sustainable options, ensuring that visitors could source for diverse market segments all in one place. Notable highlights included Docotton Group AS (Turkiye), PT Dan Liris (Indonesia) and Rutex GmbH (Germany), which captured interest with their innovation and market relevance.

Global textile hubs unite at Yarn Expo

Further enriching its global profile, the fair featured three country/region pavilions and zones – the India Pavilion, Pakistan Zone, and Taiwan Zone – offering a concentrated showcase of each region’s textile expertise and opening new opportunities for cross-border exchange. An all-encompassing product range was matched by a varied mix of visitors spanning spinners, knitters, fashion brands, as well as trade professionals from upstream and downstream parts of the value chain.

The show was held alongside Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Autumn Edition, CHIC, and PH Value, which added to its breadth by encouraging cross-sector collaboration and making it easier to source products across different textile categories. This combination not only elevated the fair’s appeal but also reinforced its profile as a one-stop international marketplace, allowing visitors to connect with suppliers, identify trends, and establish networks efficiently.

The upcoming edition of Yarn Expo Spring will be held from 11 – 13 March 2026.
