The 16th edition of Performance Days trade fair that took place recently in Munich, Germany, has come to an end with a 6 per cent increase in the number of visitors.
Organisers reported the increasing satisfaction levels of exhibitors and visitors, which are said to confirm the successful concept of Performance Days, the international trade fair focused on functional fabrics for sport, fashion, and occupational clothing.
In addition to all the major fabrics, fibers, and accessory suppliers, the trade fair provides all pertinent background information required for rapid decision-making.
This edition of the event featured several visitor highlights, including the free hourly presentations, and the discussions of the selection of fabrics at the Performance Forum. For the first time, closed workshops were organized by exhibitors on important subjects related to the trade fair's focus topic and were very well received.
Theevent also featured a lecture about the new colour trends for Summer 2018, as well as the brand new Performance Colors, a colour card developed by designer Nora Kühner, available for purchase as an exclusive service at the trade fair.
This edition of the trade fair was especially rewarding for Japanese exhibitor Toyota Tsusho Corporation, which was selected as the winner of the Eco Performance Award for its Gelanots laminate.
