Texprocess Americas and Techtextil North America postponed

In light of the worldwide spread of COVID-19 and after heavy analysis in collaboration with event stakeholders, including the partners at ATME-I and co-producers at SPESA, Messe Frankfurt North America has collectively decided to postpone Techtextil North America and Texprocess Americas.

Up until this point, the organizers were optimistic that May was far enough away to proceed with the events as planned. However, as the situation has evolved, they feel that they must act in the best interest of the exhibitors, visitors, and the industry overall.

The co-location of Techtextil North America and Texprocess Americas has become one of the most important meeting places for the technical textile, nonwovens, and sewn products industries. It is here that textile professionals have the opportunity to connect with leaders of industry across all sectors to facilitate the exchange of ideas and generate new business partnerships.


With this in mind, Messe Frankfurt North America and event partners consider it of utmost importance to continue to serve the industry, therefore, Techtextil North America and Texprocess Americas will now take place December 15-17, 2020 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia.

"We have considered the wide-range of impacts this will have on our exhibitor and visitor base, and we appreciate your continued support and understanding as we continue to navigate this situation together", said Kristy Meade, Show Director.
