The 32nd International Exhibition of Iranian Textile Machinery, Raw Materials, Home Textiles, and Embroidery Machines (IRANTEX), as well as the 14th International Fashion Exhibition of Iran (IRANMODE), have started in Tehran. These events opened at the permanent site of the Tehran International Exhibitions with the participation of leading industry companies.
According to an IRNA report, the exhibitions began with the participation of 108 domestic and foreign firms, displayed across five exhibition halls, and will continue until October 21st at the same venue.
Both exhibitions provide an opportunity to showcase the potential of local manufacturers, present new achievements, and establish connections among all participants in the textile and sewing industry chain, including organizers and specialists in this field.
IRANTEX stands feature products and successes from various sectors of the industry, including textile machinery and mechanisms, raw materials, yarn and fibers, diverse fabrics, and home goods. Visitors can learn about the latest technologies and solutions aimed at improving product quality, design, and production processes.
The IRANMODE exhibition focuses on presenting the latest collections, designs, and capabilities of clothing manufacturers. The event serves as a platform to demonstrate national manufacturing and design potential, study new market trends, and strengthen ties between designers, suppliers, manufacturers, and participants in the sewing sector.
The joint holding of these two events promotes closer interaction between different links in the production chain—from raw material supply and fabric production to design, sewing, and final delivery of finished goods. Such interaction can significantly influence increased productivity, improved quality, and enhanced competitiveness of Iranian products.
Among other goals of the exhibitions are export development, searching for new markets, technology and knowledge transfer, attracting investment, and expanding trade cooperation with foreign companies. Specialized meetings, training seminars, and business gatherings also offer a chance to exchange experiences, discuss industry challenges, and create a basis for joint work.
The textile and sewing industry is one of the country's key manufacturing sectors, possessing significant potential for value creation and export development through job creation and integration with upstream and downstream industries. Therefore, specialized exhibitions in this field help familiarize with domestic capabilities, understand market needs, and strengthen the link between consumers and producers.
Seyed Shojaeddin Emami-Rauf, Secretary of the Iranian Textile Industry Association, characterized these specialized events as an important platform for presenting the latest achievements, technologies, and products of the country's textile and sewing industry. He emphasized that developing trade contacts and strengthening export markets are among the most crucial tasks of holding these exhibitions.
He added that visitors are welcome in halls 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. This industry figure noted that in addition to showcasing domestic capabilities, the international section of IRANTEX includes companies and representatives from five countries—China, Turkey, South Korea, the Netherlands, and Germany, which indicates the interest of international players in the Iranian textile market.
He also mentioned that the exhibition covers a wide spectrum of the value chain in the textile and sewing industry, including machinery, yarn, fibers, and raw materials for textiles and home goods, bedding, as well as clothing for men, women, and children.
The Secretary of the Iranian Textile Industry Association invited everyone active in this field—manufacturers, specialists, and interested parties—to attend the event to learn about the latest achievements and gain a favorable opportunity for exchanging information, concluding contracts, and developing trade partnerships.
