Chinese clothing fabrics exhibition Intertextile Beijing held at the Beijing Exhibition Centre last week proved once again that it is a key meeting place for the apparel textile industry.

The fair, jointly organized by Messe Frankfurt and the Sub-Council of Textile Industry, CCPIT and the China Textile Information Centre, drew a positive response from the majority of exhibitors.

Ms Annie Ma, Group Manager for Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, said, "Intertextile Beijing is clearly regarded as the most important platform for apparel textile business in the north-eastern region of China. Since its creation in 2001, the show has become the first choice for garment manufacturers and buyers from this area to source anything and everything from fibres to fabrics and accessories."

"With over 23 percent more exhibitors than in 2005, Intertextile Beijing is showing a very healthy growth," continued Ma. "We are confident that such an increase in exhibitor numbers is set to continue and this is why, next year, the show will be held at two different venues – the Beijing Exhibition Centre and the China World Trade Centre."

Covering five standard and three temporary halls, Intertextile Beijing 2006 housed a wide range of apparel fabrics and accessories from all over the world. Over 680 exhibitors from 18 countries and regions participated at the show including for the first time, companies from the Philippines, Spain and the USA.

Exhibitors from Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and for the first time Pakistan, were present at the show under national pavilions. The positive atmosphere of the fair was evident for all and the foreign exhibitors were especially enthusiastic about the potential of the north-east China market.
