Functional Fabric Fair, Future Fabrics Expo partner for textile innovation

Functional Fabric Fair (FFF) has announced a major new partnership with the Future Fabrics Expo (FFE), uniting two key global players in textile sustainability and innovation. This collaboration aims to push the industry forward with next-generation materials and a stronger focus on sophisticated sustainable practices.

A key feature of the event will be the FFE-curated Innovation Hub, positioned near the main exhibition area. This space will showcase a carefully selected range of pioneering sustainable materials and concepts. FFE will also contribute expert insights to the fair’s educational talk series, focusing on responsible and future-forward material innovation.

Looking ahead, FFE will also curate sustainability features at upcoming Functional Fabric Fair events in Portland, and at PERFORMANCE DAYS trade shows in Munich and Shanghai.

“We’re thrilled to offer a new platform to showcase the visionary work of the Future Fabrics Expo,” said Steve McCullough, Vice President of Functional Fabric Fair. “Together, we’re building more meaningful and solution-driven events that support change throughout the supply chain.”

FFE founder and CEO Nina Marenzi added, “This partnership underlines our shared dedication to accelerating the shift toward nature-positive and decarbonized supply chains.”
