Scheduled from January 13-16, the event in Frankfurt, Germany, will feature a wide array of home textiles and products for interior design, offering a crucial platform for the latest trends and innovations within the global textile industry.

Heimtextil 2026 will present an extensive range of textiles and carpets, covering sectors from bedrooms and bathrooms to living spaces and flooring. The inclusion of Flooring and Equipment broadens the fair’s reach, encompassing both textile and non-textile interior designs. The event will feature various products, including fitted and handmade carpets, rugs, fibres, yarns, and related machinery and accessories.
