The 7th China Textile New Materials Exhibition came to a successful close in Keqiao, Shaoxing on November 8th. As a professional event certified by UFI International Exhibition Association and by both the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Commerce for "Optimizing Supply and Promoting Upgrading", this exhibition takes the full chain and precision as its main thread. Within the three-day exhibition period, it has built an efficient connection platform covering the entire industrial chain of new textile materials, comprehensively promoting innovation and upgrading in the industry.

During the three-day exhibition period, "precise matching" became the core logic running through this exhibition. The five distinctive exhibition areas are precisely laid out around specific demands to achieve efficient supply and demand matching: The functional fabric area showcases advanced fabrics such as water-repellent, antibacterial, and moisture-wicking ones, providing precise services for outdoor sports, clothing brands, and home textile enterprises. The intelligent equipment zone brings weaving equipment equipped with intelligent sensors, environmentally friendly digital printing machinery and overall factory upgrade solutions, facilitating the "intelligent manufacturing transformation" of traditional factories. The fiber yarn area gathers cutting-edge materials such as bio-based, recycled and conductive ones. The traditional Chinese embroidery jacquard area integrates intangible cultural heritage techniques such as Suzhou embroidery with modern design, precisely attracting target purchasers for in-depth negotiations.

Leading enterprises gather to showcase their hard power of innovation

This exhibition brings together industry leaders and distinctive exhibition groups, showcasing the latest achievements in the field of new textile materials. Changzhou Henglibao showcased its achievements in the industrialization of eco-friendly functional fabrics empowered by nanotechnology and bio-based fibers of Yisheng New materials. Shanghai Dekai and Shandong Rare Technology's high-performance recycled fibers focus on the demand for low-carbon transformation. Industry giants such as Tongkun Group, Hengli Company and Ordos brought new polyester fibers, high-end nylon and other products, demonstrating their strong technological capabilities.

The Textile New Materials Center of China Textile City, in collaboration with 16 leading enterprises including Shandong Weiqiao, Wuxi No.1 Cotton, and Jiangsu Sanlian, jointly participated in the exhibition. The exhibition area exceeded 500 square meters, showcasing the cutting-edge achievements in the field of textile new materials. The three-day exhibition attracted over 15,000 professional visitors from home and abroad in total. The on-site connection atmosphere was lively and the industrial linkage achieved remarkable results.

Innovative products have attracted much attention, and the performance of intention orders has been outstanding

The intelligent temperature-controlled fibers of Weiqiao Textile have achieved a leap from "passive heat preservation" to "dynamic temperature regulation". The antibacterial fabric of Taiji Stone has entered the medical and sports protection fields. Hesu Times creates bio-based antibacterial yarns from the source and empowers green and healthy living with technology.

The exhibition was highly effective, and many enterprises reaped rich rewards. The pure natural kapok yarn of Jiangsu Donghua has attracted the attention of many downstream fabric merchants and brand enterprises, with on-site intention orders reaching 550 tons. Shaoxing Taiding New Materials has received an intention order of 70 tons for its graphene functional yarn. Jiangsu Yueda, relying on its independently developed innovative products, also performed outstandingly and reached an intention to cooperate with 100 tons. Innovative products such as graphene wool fabric with far-infrared and antibacterial functions, and peptide fiber products making their debut have also attracted a large number of purchasing inquiries, demonstrating the market's strong demand for high-tech textile new materials.

Professional activities empower and build a platform for industrial exchanges

The supporting professional activities continue to infuse the extension with connotation, fully practicing the concept of "empowering the entire industrial chain". The China Textile New Materials Forum invites authoritative experts from home and abroad to conduct in-depth sharing on topics such as the research and development of low-carbon materials, the application of bio-based fibers, and the implementation of circular technologies. The national trend fashion show showcases works such as bio-based fiber Chinese-style evening gowns and conductive fiber smart clothing through immersive performances, building a communication bridge between "laboratory achievements" and "consumer applications". The ASEAN Countries' Overseas Market Expansion and International Trade Risk Response Exchange Event invited guests such as the president of the Myanmar Garment Association, foreign-related lawyers, and tax and finance experts to give special lectures, deeply analyzing the market opportunities and trade risks in Southeast Asia, and helping enterprises steadily expand their international markets.

From the concentrated display of green materials to the on-site demonstration of intelligent technologies, from the precise services in the segmented exhibition areas to the intellectual exchanges in industry forums, this exhibition comprehensively covers the key links of industrial innovation and development, accelerating the transformation process of new materials from technology to application. This three-day industry event, with its clear full-chain layout, solid connection effectiveness and cutting-edge innovation display, has injected strong impetus into the coordinated development of the textile new materials field and laid a solid foundation for the high-quality development of the industry.
