Welcome to Functional Fabric Fair. Now, be YOU.

At RX’s Functional Fabric Fair, everyone belongs. We cultivate a culture of inclusion at all our events, where the very things that make each of us unique are celebrated. Our exhibitors, attendees, partners, event speakers, and industry colleagues are people from a wide variety of backgrounds, who make our shows stronger and our collective experience richer.  Now, be YOU.


Colorization: Chemistry is Everywhere

No matter how much technical progress fabrics achieve - it is their aesthetic beauty that seals the deal. Although the virtual world is progressing fabrics still have the W-o-W ability in real life. This is what we aim for the Focus Topic submissions! Most of the visual effect comes from color. Finishes enhance the tactile effect. Being PERFORMANCE DAYS: we want to know about better practice to obtain this result.
