importance both as an exhibiting platform, and as a vital
resource in the recovery of the industry post-pandemic.
China responded quickly to the pandemic and its dynamic
domestic market recovered very soon, in what is
generally characterized as the world’s fastest epidemic
recovery. This signifies the unlimited potential of China
and the Asian region to support the global economic
resurgence. As a leading flooring exhibition in the Asian
Pacific region, DOMOTEX asia/CHINAFLOOR, keeps up
with the most current industry trends and transforms
itself accordingly. In order to cover the needs of both
domestic and international exhibitors and visitors, the
show continues for a second year in a hybrid mode. It
successfully combines the physical show that operates
in exactly the same way as the DOMOTEX asia/CHINAF-
LOOR that its audience knows and trusts, and a digital
platform, Global Flooring Connect, that addresses and
eliminates the trade barriers under the current travel
restrictions.
Emphasis is given on developing new audiences catering
to the growing exhibitor needs and demands. To
achieve that the show develops extensively in this edition
new engineering, design and application themes, thus
providing various channels to its exhibitors. Within this
concept, an enriched series of onsite and online events
complement this 23rd edition of the show, with wellknown
repeating events as well as brand new ones.
