展会简介
The Exhibition Value of the Nantong Textile Expo
- A concentrated showcase of Nantong’s rich industrial heritage as the “Home of Textiles,” serving as a pivotal link between the Yangtze River Delta and global markets.The Nantong International Home Textiles, Apparel Fabrics & Accessories Exhibition (Nantong Textile Expo), built upon Nantong’s profound historical roots as the birthplace of modern Chinese textile manufacturing and the “Home of Textiles,” is organized by the Nantong High-End Textile Industry Alliance. It is a flagship event in the textile sector, receiving strong government support. Nantong has emerged as the nation’s largest production base and trading hub for home textiles, with market share unmatched nationwide; over 60% of global home textile manufacturing capacity is located here, and its high-end home textile sector ranks third worldwide. Centered on “showcasing premium products, promoting innovation, and building bridges,” the expo is widely recognized within the industry as a leading indicator of China’s home textile development and a strategic gateway for companies seeking to expand into the Yangtze River Delta and beyond.
- A one-stop platform covering the entire textile value chain.The exhibition encompasses all core segments of the textile industry, including home textiles, apparel fabrics, accessories, fibers and yarns, and advanced textile materials. From bedding fabrics, decorative textiles, and curtain fabrics to cotton, linen, silk, wool, synthetic knits, and functional textiles; from zippers, buttons, and sewing threads to natural fibers, chemical fibers, and cutting-edge functional materials—this comprehensive display spans the full spectrum of the textile value chain, from raw materials to finished products, and from traditional manufacturing to digital innovation. Concurrently, the event hosts the Textile Machinery & Automated Sewing Equipment Exhibition, the Textile Printing Industry Exhibition, and the Fiber, Yarn, and New Materials Exhibition, creating synergies that enable deep sharing of industry resources.
- Precise alignment with key buyers and supply-chain partners across the Yangtze River Delta and throughout China.For the 2026 edition, the exhibition is expected to cover 25,000 square meters, bringing together more than 500 exhibiting enterprises and attracting 50,000 professional visitors. Nantong boasts over 5,000 apparel manufacturers, while the DieShiQiao and ChuanGangZhiHao markets enjoy international renown, consistently ranking among the top in national trade volume. Professional buyers span all procurement channels, including home textile brand purchasers, apparel fabric and accessory suppliers, distributors, and cross-border e‑commerce sellers. With a fully integrated textile value chain encompassing fibers, textiles, dyeing, and home textiles, Nantong provides exhibitors with a strategic pathway to connect with leading manufacturing enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta.
- Unique value for Chinese enterprises: cultivating a foothold in the “World Capital of Home Textiles” and leveraging the region’s industrial clusters as a strategic engine.Nantong’s textile industry is exceptionally robust, with 13,000 textile enterprises and 24,000 merchants operating across the city, generating annual trade volumes exceeding RMB 130 billion. The region has nurtured numerous benchmark brands in the home textile sector, such as JinTaiYang, LanSiYu, ZiLuoLan, MeiLuo, and RuiAiFu. Concurrent events include the High-End Home Textiles Development Conference and the Global Smart Factory Summit Forum, offering enterprises platforms for deep engagement with local industrial clusters. Statistics reveal that 68.5% of global home textile production and manufacturing facilities are located in China, with 62.5% concentrated in Nantong. Exhibiting companies can thus directly access China’s densest supply-chain network in the home textile sector, seizing early opportunities in both domestic and international markets.
- A vanguard for technological innovation and industry trends.Digitalization, intelligence, green technologies, and functional new materials take center stage at the expo. The Graphene Textile Innovation Forum and the AI Design Showcase highlight cutting-edge advancements, such as AI‑assisted pattern design and smart fabric R&D. Nantong’s textile industry is steadily advancing toward higher‑end manufacturing processes characterized by digitalization, networking, and intelligent equipment and technologies. As Nantong transforms into a “High-End Textile Intelligent Manufacturing Demonstration Base,” exhibitors gain invaluable insights into industry-wide shifts toward “intelligence, green practices, and branding,” positioning themselves at the forefront of this transformative wave.
- Deep connections between high‑level forums and industry resources.The expo hosts major events such as the China High-End Home Textiles Development Conference, the Global Smart Factory Summit Forum, and the Graphene Textile Innovation Forum. Throughout the exhibition, additional activities—including high‑profile summits, new‑product launches, technical seminars, and business‑expansion exchange sessions—bring together industry experts, corporate leaders, and policymakers to engage in in-depth discussions on critical topics like textile industry upgrading, smart factory construction, and new‑material R&D.
- Nantong’s locational and industrial advantages.Held at the Nantong International Convention and Exhibition Center, the expo enjoys a prime location in the heart of the Yangtze River Delta, just across the river from Shanghai and Suzhou, with convenient transportation links. Nantong stands as China’s largest home textile production base and trading market, with its high-end home textile sector ranking third globally and its output value sixth nationwide. Leveraging Nantong’s strategic position as a leading hub of China’s textile industry, the Nantong Textile Expo offers exhibitors a powerful platform to connect with both the Yangtze River Delta and global textile markets.
