For textile and machinery exhibitors

What a textile website should show

Buyers and mill agents check specifications, certificates and sample options on a company website before the fair, and return to it afterwards to compare suppliers and make contact.}

Dedicated product pages

Give each fabric range or machine type its own product page with clear specifications, so buyers can check composition, width, weight or output before they reach your stand.

Current certificate downloads

Offer certificate and test-report downloads, such as OEKO-TEX or GOTS documents, and keep them current, because sourcing buyers often ask for them first.

Fair-Specific QR landing page

Print a QR code on your stand that opens a page made for the fair, with swatch and sample requests, in the languages of your main visitor markets.

Prompt personal Follow-Up

Scan the business cards of mill buyers and agents at the stand, note which fabric or machine they asked about, and send each of them a personal reply within days.
