World flooring event DOMOTEX 2023 launches with a host of new features and a focus on sustainability.
The 33rd edition of DOMOTEX will run from 12-15 January 2023 at the Hannover Exhibition Center in Germany, and it’s clear that the globally renowned trade show for carpets and floor coverings will be a strong and innovative event.
The event organisers, Deutsche Messe, utilised the pandemic hiatus to adapt the DOMOTEX trade show to the changing market needs and to further strategic developments.
From 12-15 January 2023, DOMOTEX will showcase several new features: a modern and optimized arrangement of the two newly introduced DOMOTEX labels “Rugs” and “Flooring” as well as an adapted hall structure to facilitate orientation. In addition, DOMOTEX offers even more application orientation and more special formats tailored to specific target groups for more atmosphere and relevance.
Sonia Wedell-Castellano, Global Director DOMOTEX, Deutsche Messe AG, explains: “With its special showcase “THE GREEN COLLECTION”, DOMOTEX is focusing on the issue of sustainability and offering exhibitors and visitors a hands-on experience of the keynote theme. The ‘new’ DOMOTEX offers everyone involved plenty of scope for experience, orientation, innovation and inspiration, but also, of course, access to new customers, partners and suppliers. We will be presenting trends, innovations and lifestyle de-centrally in the respective exhibition areas. Exhibitors and trade show guests can look forward to many innovative ideas. They can discover trends and innovations that will shape tomorrow’s business.”
The upcoming DOMOTEX will offer new formats and points of contact in all product areas. These include the new MOOD SPACES, booths designed by interior designers that represent current trends and express the floor and carpet as an integrated solution. The Spaces are a source of inspiration for the furniture trade and interior designers and, in the spirit of the concept store format, show which products can be combined to form a themed world.
With the likewise new special display area “THE GREEN COLLECTION”, the theme of sustainability will be presented in an inspiring ambience. In line with the keynote theme FLOORED BY NATURE, the special area THE GREEN COLLECTION will provide an overview of products and production processes from carpet and flooring manufacturers that stand for sustainability.
THE GREEN COLLECTION covers the topics Eco-Friendly Products, Healthy Products, Sustainable Production and Social Responsibility. Current research projects and thus a glimpse into the future of carpeting and flooring are also offered here. In addition, certifiers have the opportunity to present themselves here. This area is rounded off by a conference program that addresses current topics, a presentation corner for universities and institutes, and a catering area.
From handwoven rugs and machine-made carpets to parquet, wood and laminate and outdoor floor coverings. DOMOTEX is the ideal business platform where you can gain an overview of the season’s trends, meet manufacturers and new importers.
