Ms. Wilmet Shea, General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, expressed optimism about the market's trajectory, emphasizing the pivotal role of sustainability in meeting evolving consumer demands.
"As daily essentials, yarns and fibres are always needed – especially those reflecting sustainability efforts due to rising public awareness," noted Ms. Shea. This sentiment underscores the core theme of Yarn Expo Autumn 2024, where sustainability takes center stage. The event aligns closely with the Texpertise Econogy initiative, Messe Frankfurt's umbrella for sustainability activities across its textile trade shows worldwide. From the bustling Trend Forum to insightful seminars and product showcases, the fair will spotlight eco-friendly innovations designed to meet market needs and inspire industry-wide transformation.
Anticipation runs high among global exhibitors, hailing from diverse regions such as China, France, Indonesia, the Netherlands, Pakistan, Singapore, Türkiye, Vietnam, and more.
