With a high visitor flow expected, China’s traditional sourcing season gets underway Wednesday with the opening of Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition. From 6 – 8 March 2024, over 330 exhibitors from seven countries and regions will convene at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai (Hall 5.2) to highlight an extensive variety of home textile products. Buyers will be able to source the latest bedding, duvets, pillows, towels, carpets, rugs and many more.
Ms Wilmet Shea, General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, expressed: “Following the successful 2023 show, the past year has been one of steady recovery and we are looking forward to seeing what’s next as the industry evolves. With a diverse lineup of exhibitors joining us from China and around the world, this fair always ensures a comprehensive showcase of offerings. Visitors know this, and we are anticipating a strong turnout of buyers.”

Fringe programme: a deeper dive into trends reshaping the home textiles market
Complementing the strong exhibitor lineup, Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles will feature invaluable fringe events to keep attendees up-to-date with emerging developments, trends, and important intuition.
For example, one of the most essential yet often overlooked foundations for sustaining wellness is quality sleep. Throughout day one and two at the Bedding Seminar Area, sleep technology will again be a key topic of discussion, guaranteeing comprehensive insights on sleep quality while tapping into associated business prospects.
Traditional Chinese medicine will also take the spotlight, with talks linking various health issues to remedies. Crossover subjects include topical therapy’s role in a better night’s sleep as well as innovations blending medicinal properties with textile design.
An increasing number of people are choosing to use natural materials and green textiles for their bedrooms and throughout their homes. For this reason, the seminars falling under the “Textiles & Technology” theme will shed light on sustainability and what’s next in the industry.
