Simultaneously, aiming to expand the scope of technology applications, VIATT 2026 will launch a specialized exhibition area for textile chemicals and dyes. This area will showcase: additives for chemical recycling, fiber production, finishing, surface coating, pre-treatment chemicals and preparations for weaving and knitting, along with various dyes and pigments.
Alongside sustainable development initiatives, the exhibition will continue to expand its Innovation and Digital Solutions Zone, bringing together cutting-edge technologies that support optimization in design, production, and supply chain management, from AI-powered pattern simulation to state-of-the-art automation systems. These solutions will contribute to enhancing the operational capacity of Vietnam's textile and garment industry, while opening up opportunities to access new markets and facilitate a high-tech transformation.
"Following its success at the 2025 exhibition, the Artificial Intelligence in Design Lab (AiDLab) will return to VIATT 2026 with its advanced WiseEye fabric inspection technology. This solution enables the automatic detection, classification, and evaluation of defects in textile materials," a representative from the Trade Promotion Department stated.
Vietnam is one of the leading exporters of textiles and garments. Currently, garment manufacturers are focusing on developing sustainable fibers, innovative fabrics, and finished products that are fashionable and creative. To meet this innovative trend, VIATT 2026 will expand its exhibition scope to include finished garments, giving fashion designers and manufacturers more options.
The exhibition will also feature a fashion brand area. (Illustrative image)
The exhibition will also feature a fashion brand zone, bringing together smaller fashion brands, along with a fashion accessories zone showcasing handbags, shoes, jewelry, and other items. These areas are expected to attract the attention of major brands such as Tory Burch and Zara, key buyers at the previous exhibition.
