The exhibition season of the year’s key business events traditionally started with Heimtextil 2019 in Frankfurt.

Our first impressions from what we saw.

The location of the halls changed and the trend zone shifted too. Mobile app became better; navigation is now more comfortable. Contract zone is situated now in a separate hall. There are some new zones, for example, pets theme. Premium Asia theme is separated and concentrated at the Halls 1.2 and 5.1.

Trend zone. Each section of the trend zone not only makes you visually familiar with a trend, but also provides an opportunity to physically feel the idea of each section. You can become both a bystander of the establishment process of one or another trend, and a direct participant and creator. This, in the best way possible, shows the core of the key idea – utopia

Working atmosphere dominates at the show. The diversity of introduced designs helps to make a choice within the bounds of a defined budget.

Color card is diverse. Many collections are introduced in the light, pastel shades, and this corresponds the Seeksanctuary concept.

Italian companies traditionally brought fabrics with a complex texture and the bravest color combinations possible. Belgium is not inferior in terms of complex textures but its producers prefer more reserved shades. Here you can select companions to the interiors of Go Off-Grid trend.

Brave colors, graphic patterns – it is Pursue Play category. All these things we found in the prints of English companies and fabrics, made in Italy.

There were also Art-Deco textures and designs which we know well from past year’s collections. Deep, intensive colors from ochre to terra-cotta. Such texture and color card fit the Embrace Indulgenence style.

We saw a lot of innovative technologies used in products. There you can find dirt-resistant upholstery fabrics you can wash with water, tulle fabrics of complex compositions that combine different techniques: devore and embroidery. LED-technologies used both for wallcovering and draperies. Laconic and stylish roller blinds, turning a utility device into a design solution.

The opportunity to become familiar both with premium segment products and budget ones within one trade show is still one of the main Heimtextil’s advantages.
