In case you missed it: Yarn Expo Autumn 2020 recap
Yarn Expo was one of the first and few trade fairs that managed to be held as scheduled last Autumn as the pandemic was under control in China. The fair attracted 15,707 visitors to source in-person.
“I think Yarn Expo is the most professional fair of its kind in China, especially when you want to source yarns and fabrics in China. I’m very glad that the autumn fair could be opened as planned.” Ms Maggie Lu, Sourcing Manager, Orkla Group Procurement Hub Shanghai
“Yarn Expo is a regular event in the textile industry calendar that everyone will go to because it always offers the most comprehensive sourcing options, compared to other similar fairs.” Ms Yolanda Wang, Sr. Product Development Engineer, Personal Protective Equipment Honeywell SPS

Heavily influenced by the global pandemic, biodegradable and additive-free, antibacterial features will be a key trend to look out for.
