SUMMARY:Connected by textiles: Heimtextil 2025
DESCRIPTION:Textiles surround us. Textiles and fabrics are key players in our relationship with our surroundings\, from clothing to all the furnishings in our homes and public spaces. This is the focus of the next edition of Heimtextil\, taking place in Frankfurt from January 14 to 17\, 2025\, with the motto “Connected by textiles.” The world’s largest and most international trade fair for textiles and textile design is back with an innovation-packed edition.
