Techtextil North America 2021 is all set for this August. Early bird registration for the show, which attracts decision makers from all major industries that touch technical textiles and nonwovens, has opened. It is the first major textile industry tradeshow in the US since COVID-19 shut down tradeshows in 2020. The three-day event is to begin on August 23.

Techtextil North America’s tired pricing structure provides significant savings to those who register in advance. All Symposium registrations include three days of exhibit hall access. Early bird pricing ends on April 15.

The event, to be held in Raleigh, North Carolina, will provide an opportunity to decision makers to conduct business and discover the latest product developments and industry trends. After the most successful odd-year show to date in 2019, and as the first major textile industry tradeshow in the US since COVID-19 shut down tradeshows in 2020, this year’s event will bring together leading manufacturers, suppliers and service providers with industry executives, buyers, engineers, technical directors, plant managers, and product development managers to resume in-person business interactions over three days of networking, education and innovation.

The show will have a symposium with industry leaders and experts discussing some of the most pivotal advancements in research and technology and shedding light on the current global economic state and its effects across industries. Topics to be discussed include Reinventing and Reimagining the Supply Chain, Digital Transformation Strategy, Government Laws and Regulations, Sustainability in Laundering and Textile Care, Circular Economy, Fabric and Materials ID, and Nonwovens and PPE.

Tech Talks, a complimentary feature at Techtextil North America, will feature complimentary mini-sessions and panel style discussions highlighting groundbreaking technical advancements across industries.

The Lab will return to Techtextil North America after its debut in 2019. The show-floor mini sessions will address the latest in textile testing and standards. Participation in The Lab provides exhibiting companies with opportunities for additional exposure and gives visitors the chance to experience textile testing first hand and educate themselves on the latest in industry standards.

An attractive feature of the exhibition is the Student Research Poster Programme, which is open to undergraduate students, as well as those pursuing their Master’s and PhD. The programme provides students from around the world a platform to share their research findings with peers and potential employers/sponsors, and present their research to a captive audience.

This year, Techtextil North America will include the first-ever Texprocess Americas pavilion, supported by SPESA, featuring machinery, equipment, and technology suppliers for the sewn products industry. In lieu of a Texprocess Americas event in 2020, the pavilion at Techtextil North America 2021 is designed to foster new business opportunities and strategic partnerships across industries. Leaders from across the industry will be given the chance to meet, learn, and see equipment functionality first-hand.

Advanced pricing for the show will begin on April 16, 2021, and standard pricing will run from June 19 through the last day of the show.
