142 participating nations, growth in exhibitors and a ten percent increase in visitors show: trade fairs are in more demand than ever. In times of persistent inflation and low purchasing power, resilience and market presence are key. This is exactly how Heimtextil enabled industry and retail: to access new markets and thus actively shape global competition,’ said Detlef Braun, Member of the Executive Board of Messe Frankfurt.
The strong internationality, quality and global variety were demonstrated among others by the Carpets & Rugs area. Across several hall levels, visitors were presented with a high-quality selection of products from leading international carpet suppliers, seamlessly integrated into the overall Heimtextil range.
Alongside buyers, interior designers, interior architects and decorators, specialised carpet buyers from around the world also benefited from business-promoting synergies for textile interior design.
