The "Functional Fabric Fair USA by PERFORMANCE DAYS" is a biannual trade show, recognized as a premier event for high-quality functional textiles. It is organized by Design & Development GmbH Textile Consult and alternates between New York in the summer and Portland in the fall.
This event serves as a central hub for qualified suppliers, decision-makers, and experts in the functional textile sector. The main emphasis is on the latest innovations and trends in textiles and accessories. Visitors can expect a wide array of products and services, including visibility enhancers, labels, patches, transfers, bands, zippers, as well as various fabric trend categories such as Baselayer, Midlayer, and Softshell.
A standout feature of the trade show is the PERFORMANCE FORUM. Curated by an expert jury, this forum acts as a platform to present industry innovations and trends. It provides exhibitors with an opportunity to showcase their groundbreaking innovations both freely and exclusively. Additionally, within the forum, prestigious awards like the Performance Award and the Eco Performance Award are presented.
The event primarily attracts professionals from the textile and apparel industry, encompassing apparel brands, buying teams, and fabric technologists. The rotating venues, New York and Portland, each boast excellent infrastructure and are sought-after centers for international trade fairs. Both cities are easily accessible by public transport and by car, making the trade show especially appealing to both exhibitors and visitors.
Overall, the "Functional Fabric Fair USA by PERFORMANCE DAYS" is not just an exhibition of the latest trends and innovations in the functional textile sector, but also an opportunity for networking and knowledge exchange. It is an indispensable event for industry stakeholders, offering a platform that reflects the dynamic market and underscores the immense potential of this sector.
