Techtextil 2026 to Debut Textile Chemicals & Dyes as Standalone Product Area

Messe Frankfurt will for the first time bundle Textile Chemicals & Dyes into an independent product area at Techtextil 2026, running 21–24 April 2026 in Frankfurt. The segment will share a hall with Fibres and Yarns and Performance Apparel Textiles, placing upstream suppliers and users in close proximity. A 2021 MarketsandMarkets analysis cited by the organizer projects the global textile chemicals market to reach USD 33.1 billion by 2026, driven partly by demand from the technical textiles sector.
