For the 2026 edition, Heimtextil introduces a new product category. The world’s premier home and contract textile trade show in Frankfurt gives non-textile floor coverings a new home: “Flooring & Equipment” perfectly complements the current portfolio with Carpets & Rugs and provides an alluring addition for a variety of visitor target groups as well as important new contacts. Heimtextil has once again established itself as the global hub for the whole textile and non-textile interior design industry with the opening of the new area.
What is the connection between a textile trade show and non-textile floor coverings? The solution is that they provide a comprehensive interior design purchasing experience. As a result, starting in 2026, Flooring & Equipment will enhance Heimtextil’s wide range of products. The emphasis is on floors devoid of a textile framework. These consist of outdoor floor coverings, cork flooring, laminate, parquet and other types of wooden flooring, designer and luxury vinyl tiles, and elastic floor coverings. In Frankfurt, Flooring & Equipment provides the industry with a customized variety on a set date. Heimtextil, the world’s premier trade show for textile design and home and contract textiles, offers a global market overview for the whole interior design industry. From wallpaper and curtains to carpets and non-textile floor coverings, purchasers may find the entire selection of premium products, trends, and interior ideas for both the house and the contract business here.
To further expand Heimtextil into a global platform of inspiration and solutions for the whole interior design business, we are continuously collaborating with the industry. Non-textile floor coverings are a great complement to Heimtextil’s current product line and appeal to new markets, like specialty floor-covering stores.According to Margit Herberth, Director of Heimtextil, “the industry also benefits from efficient synergies between product segments and numerous new contacts thanks to the direct link to Carpets & Rugs.” Additionally, Flooring & Equipment caters to the interests of current visitor target groups in a more focused way, including garden centers, DIY and home improvement stores, room and object furnishers, designers and decorators, (interior) architects, wholesalers, and retailers.
