Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Spring Edition 2025
“This is one of the most comprehensive fairs for the global textile industry, both for sourcing and information exchange, located in the heart of the world’s largest market and production hub. And it is clear that despite global issues affecting every sector, fairgoers have been happy with the business done across the fairground, and reiterated that there is no substitute for the in-person business and connections at this fair.
Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics is a platform that offers opportunities to the entire industry, no matter the size of the company, where they’re from, or the type of product, and the fantastic participation of returning and new exhibitors and visitors this spring demonstrates their votes of confidence.”
“My seminar focused on the mainstream practices of European and American brands in supply chain traceability, as well as how Chinese textile companies can enhance their traceability capabilities to better meet the traceability demands of brands. Hosting fringe events at such a high-level, large-scale textile industry event is, in my opinion, of extraordinary significance, as it facilitates industry exchange, builds trust among participants, and attendees’ feedback helps us better understand market and customer expectations.”
“We are a sustainable materials and trims company from Sweden, specialising in packaging, labelling, trims, and digital innovation. This is our first time exhibiting at Intertextile Apparel, and it has been very satisfying overall. Particularly, the VIP Tour provided us with an excellent opportunity for in-depth discussions with high-end buyers. What most incentivised our participation was the specially curated Econogy Hub, bringing together sustainable exhibitors. Connected with Econogy Talks, this created an integrated ‘exhibition + seminar’ model, offering a one-stop experience for sourcing and knowledge sharing, and giving more value to exhibitors and buyers.”
“We have been to Intertextile Apparel for 25 years straight, and the three features we value here are fashion, function and sustainability, which match with our products. A great pool of industry players from all over the world has gathered here. Exhibiting at this fair helps us explore high-end clients from China and greatly boosts our business. This time, we have brought high-quality stretch fabric for suiting and jackets and received good feedback, with many potential clients from China and Australia coming to our booth on just the first day.”
“Intertextile Apparel is a platform I know very well, where my team and I can meet many suppliers. The business matching which Messe Frankfurt coordinated was a great help. We have found a few interesting items, one is sustainable materials in the synthetics itself, such as Sorona; some milk protein-based fabrics; as well as recycled nylon products. Sustainability and functionality really stand out at this platform, and we can find more innovations than within our sourcing network. I don’t think online will ever replace in-person sourcing, because in-person you have that human touch and connection.”
“As opposed to Europe, it’s a lot nearer to fly to Shanghai from Singapore, and all the European and Japanese suppliers come here. China is the biggest hub, and Intertextile Apparel really serves all the purposes I have. All the exhibitors have warehouses in China, so it’s also very easy for our manufacturers to get the stock. I feel we have more buying power compared to last year due to tariffs. I also really like Verve for Design, there are more exhibitors this time which is helpful for my prints.”
“In my presentation, I shared insights into the future trends of yarn and women’s apparel fabrics for 2026, keeping attendees informed about industry developments, and helping them navigate the fair with greater focus and precision. After years of growth, Intertextile Apparel has built strong connections within the industry. For those of us in the apparel business, it’s a much-anticipated biannual event, where we can discover the latest materials and cutting-edge trends. When it comes to fabrics, sustainability remains a timeless theme, while another trend is the integration of technology.”
