After a 2020 postponement, co-located trade shows Techtextil North America and Texprocess Americas will return in-person May 17-19, 2022 in Atlanta, but will shift their cycle permanently going forward.

Beginning in 2023, this major North American event for sewn products and technology will pivot to an odd-year cycle with the next shows taking place from May 10-13, 2023. The change is in response to moves made by parent shows Techtextil and Texprocess Frankfurt, which switched their sequence to an even-year schedule starting in 2022.

To keep the industry connected and informed between shows, the organizers have been producing a monthly virtual webinar series that runs through April 2021, with speakers and subjects addressing current industry topics across technical textiles, nonwoven and sewn products. The next sessions include Smart Textiles (March 25) and High Performance Fibers (April 29). Attendees who missed the earlier sessions—including talks on 3D printing, sewing technologies, sustainability and “The Factory of the Future”—can register to view the recordings.
