As one of the most profitable business segments in the entire textile industry, the global home textile market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 5% from 2023 – 2028[1]. Consistently strong but ever-adapting to cope with new trends and consumer needs, much of the home and contract textile industry has been adopting sustainable practices.

At the forefront of this green movement is the Lenzing Group, a world-leading manufacturer of renewable specialty fibres. Complementing the fair’s other zones, Lenzing and its business associates will form a brand-new home textiles-oriented pavilion at the Spring Edition of Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles, set to take place from 28 – 30 March 2023 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai).

According to a report from Allied Market Research, the global sustainable home décor market, which includes home textiles, is projected to reach USD 556 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2022 to 2031. China is also seeing steady growth in the use of these products[2].

Globally, consumers’ growing environmental concerns have led to an increasing preference for eco-friendly home design items, resulting in the market’s expansion. This segment has also been boosted by surging demand for high-end sustainable home décor products, due to improvements in living standards in China and other rising nations.
