What to expect?
The textile industry was like so many other industries hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic the past few years, and when Techtextil North America held the 2021 edition in Raleigh, North Carolina last fall, it was among the first major textile related shows to take place live since the beginning of the pandemic.
This year’s edition assembles all vertical aspects of the technical textile industry: from research and development, through raw materials and production processes and finally ending in conversion, further treatment, and recycling.
