Texworld USA, the largest apparel fabric sourcing show in North America, delivers a sold out show floor. The fifteenth edition of Texworld USA showcases a record 426 companies and associations from 17 countries, making this the largest edition to date. With a 23 percent increase from the July 2012 edition, the show continues to maintain its presence as the must see event for the apparel fabrics industry.
Held July 16 – 18, 2013 at the Javits Convention Center in New York City, and co-located with the International Apparel Sourcing Show and the Home Textiles Sourcing Expo, Texworld USA creates one of the largest sourcing destinations in the U.S.
First-time exhibitors from Germany and France will showcase new products while participation from key sourcing regions such as Turkey, Hong Kong and Korea has increased. North America’s most important platform for apparel fabrics also features a new Colombia Pavilion offering the latest in luxurious fabrics.
Messe Frankfurt continues to partner with the leading fiber manufacturer, Lenzing. Among their product portfolio, the Austrian-based company presents their assortment of fibers derived from wood pulp: TENCEL and Lenzing Modal. Lenzing sponsors the Lenzing Pavilion with seven countries represented at the three day event.
“Texworld USA is an exceptional venue for the spinners and mills that use TENCEL and Lenzing Modal to show their new developments to a wide range of buyers. The Lenzing exhibitor’s value participating in Texworld USA in order to have the pulse of the market and discuss customer's needs,” says Tricia Carey, USA Merchandising Manager, Lenzing.
In addition to sponsoring the pavilion, Lenzing Fibers organizes a series of educational seminars. Seminar topics include new business development, sourcing, trend forecasting plus many more. The three-day seminar program is free for all registered attendees and is available on a first come, first serve basis.
