This September 2008 show was marked by confirmation of the importance of Bio textiles, with many new initiatives in the field of organic crop growing and sustainable development through the introduction of fair trade.

Asian companies are responding increasingly well to European certification requirements, like the Thai companies AFC-Asia Fiber Public-, RTI –Rama Textile Industry-, Thong Thai Textile and GV Silk - the first Asian Texworld companies to have obtained the EU Flower label for the excellence of their production methods.

Also one of the first companies to be included in the global quality programme established by the IFTH in partnership with Texworld has been the Indian company OCM, a producer of wool and part of the Burlington Worldwide organisation, which decided to have its fabrics certified through Level 1 tests (absence of azo dyes, prohibited by European regulations) and Level 2 tests (absence of formaldehyde and a check on pH measurements).

In addition to this the “Eco-Textile Labelling Guide” published by MCL and Messe Frankfurt was available at the show for the first time, and its usefulness was appreciated because it provides a very complete list of the most important Eco Textile et Fair Trade labels now in use in the world.

Finally the presence of young designers in the Designers & Fashion space, alongside Esmod Beijing, which trains stylists designers, was particularly appreciated by visitors, and has already borne fruit in that there have been firm and hopeful offers of cooperation and orders for the former and second ments and work for the latter. The next Texworld will take place from 9 to 12 February 2009 at the exhibition center Paris le Bourget.
