China Shanghai International Textile Yarn Exhibition (Autumn/Winter)

The Value of Participating in the China Textile Yarn Exhibition (yarnexpo)

• Asia’s Leading Flagship Platform for the Fiber and Yarn Industry. Co-hosted by Messe Frankfurt (Hong Kong) Limited and the Textile Industry Branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, after more than two decades of development, yarnexpo has become one of the most influential professional events at the upstream end of the global textile supply chain. As the origin point of the textile industry, yarnexpo is held concurrently with Intertextile Accessories Fair, CHIC Apparel Show, PH Value Knitting Expo, and other exhibitions, creating a five-exhibition synergy that spans the entire value chain—from fibers and yarns to finished garments and home textiles. It serves as a strategic gateway for fiber and yarn companies to showcase their innovative capabilities, connect with global resources, and stay ahead of emerging trends.
• Comprehensive Coverage Across All Product Categories, with Precise Alignment Through Seven Major Product Zones. The exhibition encompasses core categories such as synthetic fibers, cotton yarns, fancy yarns, hemp yarns, wool yarns, silk yarns, and international yarns. With seven thematic product zones, the Synthetic Fiber Zone brings together over 240 exhibitors to present China’s groundbreaking innovations in synthetic fibers, while the Fancy Yarn Zone gathers more than 120 exhibitors to highlight trending products. The Cotton Yarn Zone focuses on sustainability and technological advancements, and the Hemp, Silk, and Wool Zones spotlight new product innovations. From natural fibers to synthetics, from functional yarns to eco-friendly materials, the exhibition fully showcases the entire spectrum of innovations within the yarn industry.
• Access to Global Buyer Networks, Delivering Outstanding Results in International Procurement. The autumn 2025 edition attracted nearly 580 exhibitors from 16 countries and regions worldwide, drawing over 22,000 professional buyers from 111 countries and regions. The Indian delegation (organized by TEXPROCIL) featured nearly 20 suppliers offering high-quality cotton yarns, while the Pakistani zone introduced blended and organic cotton yarns, and the Taiwanese zone, curated by the Taiwan Textile Federation, presented a diverse array of air-jet spun yarns. Internationally renowned companies such as Turkey’s Docotton Group, Indonesia’s PT Dan Liris, and Germany’s Rutex GmbH showcased innovative products, capturing significant attention from global buyers.
• A Vanguard for Green and Sustainable Practices, Setting the Tone for Industry Innovation. As an integral part of Messe Frankfurt’s Texpertise network, the exhibition actively promotes sustainable development efforts within the industry. This year, exhibitors were encouraged to undergo independent verification through the Econogy Check tool, assessing dimensions such as sustainable supply chains, materials and processes, strategies, and innovations. Companies passing verification are listed in the Econogy Finder sustainable supplier directory. On-site activities included coordination with Intertextile’s Econogy Hub, Econogy Talks, and Econogy Tours—green-themed initiatives designed to provide comprehensive sustainable procurement solutions across the entire textile value chain.
• Diverse Events Empower Stakeholders, Building a High-Profile Hub for Industry-Academia-Research-Application Collaboration. Concurrent with the exhibition, a series of engaging events took place, including the Tongkun China Fiber Trend Static Display, the “New Horizons in Fibers”—Textile Materials Innovation Forum, and the China Yarn Trend Showcase Press Conference. The Tongkun China Fiber Trend 2025/2026 Showcase concentrated on presenting over 300 new fiber samples, while the Textile Materials Innovation Forum invited experts to delve into smart textiles and fiber innovations. Eleven product launch events emerged from leading exhibitors, offering high-end think-tank platforms to help participating companies grasp industry trends and seize market opportunities.
