IFAI Expo is a dynamic event experience combining textile industry experts, manufacturers, members and attendees to deliver innovative, industry-shaping solutions. Drawing on more than 100 years of trade show experience, IFAI Expo has been the foundation of providing the specialty fabrics industry a forum for commerce, networking, and knowledge. With the addition of advanced textiles and an all-new shade area from 2015, the show continues to service all aspects of the industry.

The show will host traditional market suppliers from fabric, equipment and hardware to services needed to manufacture end products, as well as advanced materials – end products from retractable awning systems, shade structures and canopies to motorized shade and weather solutions. Innovative suppliers highlight partnerships throughout the supply chain in technical textiles markets including medical, automotive, wearables, safety/protective, performance wear, and aerospace. The event will also feature an expanded three-part testing programme.
