Heimtextil has announced a strategic partnership with Hospitality Interiors Europe (HINT), launching a complementary event alongside Heimtextil 2027.

The new format will provide a dedicated stage for decision-makers from architecture, project development, and interior design in hospitality, presenting curated design concepts and first-class product worlds. Hospitality Interiors Europe will operate in its own hall with a specialised congress programme highlighting key trends, best practices, and relevant project developments in hospitality interiors.
Strive Exhibitions, led by Toby Walters and Sam Murray, known for launching the Cruise Ship Interiors Expo, will organise the platform, bringing a strong industry network and global expertise to the partnership.
Olaf Schmidt, Vice President Textiles & Textile Technologies at Messe Frankfurt, commented:
"Textiles drive guest experience and market relevance in hospitality. Partnering with Hospitality Interiors Europe allows us to expand our contract business offering, delivering new opportunities for architects, interior designers, and project developers worldwide."
