The Techtextil Innovation Prize honours outstanding, innovative and unusual achievements in the field of research, material and product development and new technology. In addition, the Student Competition, sponsored by the TensiNet Federation and Techtextil, will honour new ideas and concepts based on the theme 'Textile Structures for New Building'.

Whether 'smart textiles' featuring integrated electronics or 'intelligent textiles', whose interactive effects are man- and environment-dependent, the Avantex concept consistently focuses on the high-tech when it comes to apparel textiles. As a result, Avantex is the first platform of its kind to offer an interdisciplinary dialogue, whilst simultaneously promoting revolutionary developments and visionary concepts.

The exhibitor spectrum is divided into ten product groups: Research/Development/Consulting, Textile Technology, Fibres and Yarns, Textile Surfaces and Membranes, Textile Finishing, High-Tech in Clothing, Innovative Clothing, Textile Care, Trade Associations and Publishing Companies.

On the visitor side, four areas of application have been classified: Fashion (the latest trends, current standards and entertainment aplenty); Sports (comfort, functionality and protection with respect to a wide range of activities), Healthcare (all the latest from the fields of medicine, wellness, prevention and care) and Workwear (innovations in safety and comfortable protection for the world of work). Thefringe programme includes the Avantex Symposium and the Avantex Innovation Prize.
