Ambiente is an international consumer goods trade fair, which takes place once a year in Frankfurt, open to trade visitors only, offering products in the areas of dining, giving, and living. Ambiente presents itself as a central platform for the order business of the upcoming season where leading international exhibitors present themselves and show their products and innovations from the fields of table, kitchen, household, gifts, home, furnishing, decoration. The show is accompanied by special presentations, award ceremonies and numerous actions concentrating on sustainability, creativity and emotionality.

Heimtextil has been postponed from its usual January date and will now be held concurrently with Techtextil and Texprocess 2021 in Frankfurt from 4 to 7 May 2021. This will result in exciting synergistic effects for the sector. The current situation with respect to the coronavirus pandemic and the associated international travel restrictions have caused Messe Frankfurt to postpone the next Heimtextil, the world’s biggest trade fair for home and contract textiles. “The bulk of the international home and contract textiles sector want us to hold Heimtextil 2021. Many companies are hoping to give their businesses a boost by taking part in the fair following the restart. And we consider it a greater obligation than ever before that we play our part in this”, explains Detlef Braun, Member of the Executive Board of Messe Frankfurt. “However, the current travel restrictions and the renewed increase in the number of infections represent a big hurdle for our very international trade fair. We are in constant contact with our exhibitors and the appropriate authorities and will do everything in our power to ensure a safe and successful Heimtextil 2021."

Heimtextil, presented by Messe Frankfurt, is among the first of the industry trade shows to take place each year, showcasing the latest in textile design through presentations, showcases, competitions, networking events and guided tours for various professional groups.
