The Hightex international technical textiles and nonwoven trade fair, which was scheduled to be held on June 22-26, 2021, has been postponed to June 14-18, 2022, considering the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the world. The postponement decision was taken as a result of intense discussions and evaluations with participants and sector representatives.

Hightex 2022 will be held in Istanbul Tuyap Fair and Congress Centre from June 14-18 2022, simultaneously with the ITM 2022 exhibition. Hightex 2022 being the first and only exhibition in its field in Turkey, will host the world’s leading technical textile and nonwoven manufacturers in Istanbul for five days, according to a press release by Teknik Fuarcilik A.S, the organiser of the show.

Hightex 2022, where many companies from Turkey and abroad will exhibit their latest technologies and products; will be visited by many industry professionals from medical to ready-to-wear, from decoration to cosmetics, from automotive to defence, Teknik Fuarcilik A.S. said in a media statement.

“We as Hightex organisation team, our priority is to protect your valuable exhibitors and visitors’ investments and all rights, not our commercial earnings. In this regard, we believe that all of our participants will find this compulsory postponement decision taken for the Hightex exhibition justified and will understand,” Teknik Fuarcilik A.S. said in a statement.
