The 28th Taipei Innovation Textile Application Show (TITAS) concluded successfully at Taiwan's Nangang Exhibition Center on October 17, 2024. This year’s event featured exhibitors from 11 countries, showcasing key innovations across the textile value chain as the industry strives toward net-zero carbon emissions.

Taiwan's textile industry is recognized as a global leader in functional and eco-friendly textiles, with stakeholders committed to continuous innovation. TITAS serves as Asia’s key sourcing platform for textiles and clothing, and participation continues to grow. Over the three-day exhibition, approximately 31,500 visitors explored nearly 1,000 booths from 385 exhibitors, generating an estimated US$51 million in future business opportunities, according to the Taiwan Textile Federation (TTF).

This season's focus was on high-quality green textiles, with a special sustainable landmark area featuring an artistic sailboat installation. This area showcased collaborations among fiber manufacturers, textile factories, and apparel producers, highlighting clothing recycling and the development of a complete circular economy within the textiles sector.
