There were people of the textile world, but also genuine people interested in art, creativity, beauty, technique, ecology…, for all that is also part of the multiform and pluridisciplinary world of textile.

A trade fair is also the opportunity to meet with the players who bring the textile trade fair to life, so I would like thank all the people of the textile world for their collaboration, among them:

Maghreb Design, Mrs Jaouida Gastli from the Centre Technique de Création, d’Innovation et d’Encadrement du Tapis et de Tissage from Tunis in Tunisia, Mr Vikram Tantia from Globe (India) Limited, an illustration of the Indian savoir-faire with fabrics and textiles, Mr Rabih L. Farsoun from Cotton Trade International in Lebanon.

I will not forget the French firm Proneem from Marseille in France that is making use of the Neem extract to free in an ecological manner our bed linen from dust mites. The Neem tree is well known in India, Burma, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Pakistan, (…), because of its medicinal virtues.

I would like to praise also the following « Eco Friendly » oriented firms thanks to their collaborators: many thanks to Mrs Dominique Blandiaux from DBCwool for the information about the ecological production of pure virgin sheep’s wool. Thanks also to Mr Koji Hamada from the firm Asahi Kasei Fibers Corporation, for the information on the Cupro fiber of cotton, a 100% biodegradable and hypoallergenic fiber.
