Emphasising sustainability and technological innovation, the fair mirrors the shifting priorities of China’s home textile market, where interest in environmentally responsible materials and smart design is rapidly increasing. Dedicated product zones and halls will help visitors navigate the wide array of offerings, reinforcing the fair’s importance as a central hub for industry collaboration and growth.
