About Intertextile — industry reputation & role
Intertextile Shanghai is widely recognized across the apparel and textile industry as a major sourcing platform. Each season it gathers a broad cross-section of suppliers (from mills and converters to accessory makers), large-volume buyers, brand representatives, designers, and technical specialists. The fair’s strengths are:
Breadth of supply:
extensive categories covering apparel fabrics, functional textiles, linings, trims and accessories — useful for buyers looking to consolidate multiple suppliers in one trip.Trend and technology showcase:
exhibitors often unveil new yarns, fabric constructions, performance finishes (moisture management, UV protection, compression, etc.), and sustainable solutions.Buyer concentration:
serious commercial buyers and sourcing teams attend, not only design scouts — so it’s a practical venue for order discussions, sampling and supplier qualification.Market intelligence:
seminars, trend zones and curated displays help visitors spot emerging material trends and supply-chain shifts.(If your strategy is to find reliable, scalable suppliers or to validate new fabric concepts for sportswear, athleisure or performance apparel, Intertextile remains one of the higher-value fairs to include in your sourcing calendar.)
What to expect at the Autumn 2025 edition
Autumn shows typically emphasize fall/winter collections and technical solutions for colder seasons, but the show’s scope is broad:
-New blends and finishes targeted at athleisure, outerwear and thermal wear.
-Displays of stretch fabrics, jacquards, brushed backings, and laminated composites.
-A growing presence of eco-friendly options: recycled fibers, low-impact dyeing and chemical-management claims.
-Dedicated zones or pavilions for performance textiles, functional accessories, and sustainable materials.
-On-site matchmaking and sample exchange — many suppliers bring swatch books and small sample rolls to speed decision-making.

Practical tips for buyers & visitors
Plan ahead:
large fairs can be dense — pre-select booths and exhibitors you want to see. Use the official floorplan and exhibitor list to schedule short, targeted meetings.Bring clear specs:
- fabric weight (gsm), target stretch/recovery, end-use, required certifications (if any) and expected order volumes — this helps suppliers give realistic feedback.Sample policy:
- ask about sample costs, lead time and shipping options. Many mills provide small trial rolls; negotiate sample terms in advance if you require many variants.Assess lead times:
ask about minimum production lead time and capacity during peak seasons; good suppliers plan ahead and can suggest staging or buffer strategies.Safety & compliance:
if you need certain compliance (GOTS, Oeko-Tex, REACH friendliness), clarify during initial talks.How to connect with us before the fair
