HIGHTEX 2026 To Showcase Next-Gen Technical Textiles

HIGHTEX 2026, Turkiye’s premier and only dedicated exhibition for technical textiles and nonwovens, will take place from June 9-13, 2026, at the Tüyap Fair and Congress Center. The event will bring together global leaders in technical textile and nonwoven technology, highlighting revolutionary advancements in smart textiles and sustainable nonwoven fabric production.
Nonwoven fabrics, a key driver of innovation in the textile sector, have seen rapid technological advancements, transforming industries from automotive to medical and hygiene to agriculture. Unlike traditional weaving and knitting, nonwovens are produced by directly bonding fibers, enhancing performance and efficiency.
At HIGHTEX 2026, visitors will witness next-generation nonwoven production techniques focused on sustainability, Industry 4.0-integrated smart systems enabling faster and more efficient manufacturing, and AI-driven quality control and automation solutions.
The rise of smart textiles is revolutionizing the industry, integrating nanotechnology, embedded sensors, heat- and pressure-sensitive fibers, and wireless connectivity into fabrics. HIGHTEX 2026 will feature cutting-edge materials designed for geotextiles, medical textiles, aerospace, automotive, hygiene, and agricultural applications, offering a platform for industry professionals to explore groundbreaking innovations.
Beyond showcasing products, HIGHTEX 2026 will serve as a global business hub, facilitating B2B meetings and fostering strategic collaborations between manufacturers, suppliers, and industry professionals. The event is expected to drive significant growth in the technical textile sector through machine sales and new investments, strengthening the industry’s global presence.
HIGHTEX 2026 will attract visitors from across the world, including America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, offering insights into the latest industry trends and expert-led discussions on technical textiles and nonwovens. With unparalleled access to cutting-edge technologies and networking opportunities, the exhibition will be a must-attend event for professionals seeking to stay ahead in the evolving technical textiles landscape.
