According to the French “Textile News” report, the 24th International Fabric Expo (Texworld) held in Paris from February 9 to 12, 2009 had a gloomy atmosphere, and the number of visitors to each textile and clothing exhibition hall decreased by 15-20%. In 2008 The 23rd exhibition that ended in September had 800 exhibitors, and in February 2009, there were about 660 exhibitors. In the face of the global financial crisis, organizers are trying their best to reduce the commercial area for exhibitors. Due to the quality reputation of the exhibition, according to a survey, 70% of exhibitors expressed satisfaction.
Reports say that the outstanding feature of this exhibition is the launch of green and environmentally friendly fabrics. Environmentally friendly fabrics will be a trump card in future marketing, but most exhibitors said that visitors currently have more inquiries and fewer orders for environmentally friendly fabrics because they are more expensive than ordinary fiber fabrics. Among the 660 exhibitors, 10% launched green and environmentally friendly fabrics.
