The three-day trade event, organised by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India, will run until 21 November 2025.
Techtextil India 2025 features 215 exhibitors, with around 100 participating for the first time. The expo is introducing products and technologies spanning 12 application-based textile segments.
During the fair, participants can attend sessions under the Techtextil Symposium covering topics such as sustainable textiles, circular supply chains, and the future of activewear in India.
Key industry organisations including MATEXIL, Indian Technical Textile Association (ITTA), Maharashtra Government’s Department of Textiles and the Tamil Nadu Government are supporting the event.
The opening ceremony saw participation from dignitaries including Government of Tamil Nadu, Department of Textiles, Textiles director, IAS R Lalitha as the Guest of Honour as well as Indian Technical Textiles Association chairman Mahesh Kudav and Messe Frankfurt Asia executive director and board member, Raj Manek.
R Lalitha said: “The Techtextil India 2025 is an expo that weaves together leading innovators, policymakers and companies to frame appropriate policies for the growing industry. I believe that man-made fibres is the sunrise sector in the future. Concepts like sustainability and circularity will give rise to better technology that could help speed up research and development in India.”
Raj Manek said: “Techtextil India 2025 will not only showcase the latest in technical textiles and nonwovens but also serve as a knowledge-driven hub connecting policy with practice. “As the high-value, sustainable and globally competitive textile industry is receiving renewed focus, the synergy between government initiatives and industry platforms such as Techtextil India 2025 will continue to strengthen India’s leadership in the global textile landscape. The show weaves together innovation, collaboration and opportunity to create a more resilient, future-ready industry.”
