The Techtextil Forum covers topics such as next-generation technical textiles, sustainable and resilient materials, digitalisation, automation, AI, and interdisciplinary innovations. The Texprocess Forum addresses sustainable solutions, CAD/CAM, legal requirements, design tools, and digital technologies. Contributions should be in English and supplemented with visuals. Selected speakers will be announced in February 2026.
"Presenters play a crucial role in shaping the programme and fostering professional exchange within the industry," says Sabine Scharrer, Director Brand Management Technical Textiles & Textile Processing at Messe Frankfurt. The forums highlight emerging trends, material development, production processes, and smart textile applications, generating insights that extend beyond the trade fair.
An international Programme Committee evaluates submissions for relevance, innovation, and quality, curating a programme that bridges research and practical application. Participation is free of charge, offering contributors direct engagement with decision-makers and global peers.
Interested participants can submit presentations via the online portals: Techtextil Forum and Texprocess Forum.
