Organized in Gaziantep, the centre of machine-made carpet manufacturing, DOMOTEX Turkey brought industry leaders together from 25-28 May once again with the support of Gaziantep Chamber of Commerce (GTO), Southeastern Anatolia Carpet Exporters' Union (GAIB) and Gaziantep Chamber of Carpet Producers (GHO).

The exhibition which featured 198 companies and occupied 22,025m² this year, stood out with increasing international participation as well. Many exhibitors came from different countries including Bangladesh, Belgium, China, France, Germany, India, Iran, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka and Uzbekistan to expand their business to new markets.

Alexander Kühnel, General Manager of Hannover Fairs Turkey, said: “Organised with the participation of leading companies in the industry, DOMOTEX Turkey showed the power of Turkey in machine-made carpet manufacturing once again. On the other hand, it also proved its success to become an international platform for the Eurasian region with increasing number of international exhibitors and visitors this year. In total 8,734 people from targeted countries, mainly from Middle East, visited the exhibition where exhibitors showcased their unique designs and new collections produced with state-of-the-art technology.”

During the show prominent companies of the carpet and flooring industry displayed their wide product range under the DOMOTEX brand. Among them, one of the eye-catching products was a self-cleaning carpet developed by using the nano-technology. Visitors watched the live demonstration of impermeability of the carpets, which adopt the technology for the production of luxury cars into the carpet manufacturing.
