Visitors can find our team at Booth 14E118 for direct fabric-development discussion rather than only a catalogue handoff. This page records what the booth can cover and how meeting preparation can stay focused.
Changle Tianyang will attend the Shenzhen International Hosiery Expo at booth 14E118. The exhibition connects hosiery, knitwear, yarn, fabric and apparel supply-chain companies. The event is useful for teams reviewing knitted apparel materials, sampling direction and production trends.
Why this exhibition matters for knitted-fabric development
The event brings together knitwear brands, hosiery manufacturers, material mills and development teams. That matters because material decisions are rarely made from a catalogue image alone. A useful meeting still needs fabric touch, stretch-and-recovery comparison, surface review and discussion of how the structure behaves after dyeing, finishing and repeated washing.
At the booth, our team can discuss warp knitted mesh, tricot, elastic apparel fabrics and custom textile development. The most useful conversations usually start with the final garment: socks, tights, underwear, sportswear panels, lining, swimwear or functional apparel all require different fabric behaviour.
- Discuss fabric application before choosing a construction.
- Bring a reference sample if handfeel or stretch is important.
- Ask how sample approval will be controlled during bulk production.
How to prepare for a meeting at Booth 14E118
A short and clear specification saves time during the exhibition. Visitors do not need to know every technical detail before the first meeting, but they should be ready to explain target use, expected width, approximate GSM, colour direction, stretch requirement and whether the fabric will touch skin directly.
If a current fabric has problems, such as poor recovery, unstable width, heavy pilling, shade variation or uncomfortable handfeel, bring that information. A factory can give a better suggestion when the problem is described in production language rather than only in visual terms.
- Final garment and body position.
- Composition preference or restricted fibres.
- Target GSM, width and stretch direction.
- Colour, finishing and testing requirements.
- Estimated quantity and delivery schedule.
Fabric topics our team can discuss on site
For hosiery and fitted apparel, fabric stability is just as important as softness. Yarn choice, knitting structure, spandex percentage and finishing tension can change the way a fabric recovers after wear. For sportswear, teams may need to balance airflow, moisture movement, opacity and durability.
The booth is also a practical place to review whether an existing fabric should be copied, adjusted or redesigned. Sometimes a project does not need an entirely new material; a small change in GSM, yarn, width or finishing process can solve the real production issue.
| Discussion question | Factory discussion point |
|---|---|
| Need more breathability | Mesh size, yarn count, opacity and strength |
| Need better recovery | Spandex content, heat setting and relaxation |
| Need softer handfeel | Yarn selection, finishing process and target application |
| Need lower cost | Usable width, GSM, cutting loss and order quantity |
After the exhibition: how sampling should continue
The best follow-up is not simply sending a price request. A useful next step is to confirm one development direction, one or two target specifications and the approval method for lab dip, handfeel and performance checks. This keeps sampling focused and reduces repeated revisions.
Teams can also review our fabric product range and send detailed requirements through the fabric inquiry form if they cannot visit the booth in person.
If the meeting is already defined, send the target garment, GSM, stretch direction and sample goal before the first discussion.
FAQ
Q1. Which booth will Changle Tianyang attend?
Changle Tianyang will attend the Shenzhen International Hosiery Expo at Booth 14E118.
Q2. What fabric topics can be discussed at the booth?
The booth can cover warp-knitted mesh, tricot fabric, elastic apparel fabric, hosiery materials, underwear fabric, sportswear panels and custom textile development.
Q3. Should visitors bring a reference sample?
Yes. A reference sample helps the factory understand handfeel, stretch, weight, opacity and finishing expectations more accurately.

How to make a hosiery and knitwear fabric meeting more useful
A hosiery or knitwear exhibition is most useful when the visiting team arrives with clear development targets. Instead of asking only for a catalogue, it helps to bring reference socks, underwear, sportswear panels or knitted apparel samples and explain the performance problem that needs to be solved. That can be softness, stretch recovery, compression, colour fastness, quick drying, pilling resistance or stable repeat orders.
The PH Value China International Knitting Fair gives useful external context for the knitting, hosiery and functional knitwear supply chain. For teams who need a more formal project file, the ISO textiles sector overview is also helpful because it shows how textile testing, inspection and certification connect with product development.
For post-meeting sample approval, the team should also define which wash and dimensional-change checks apply.ISO 6330 gives a formal washing and drying procedure for textile testing, while AATCC TM135 is commonly used to evaluate dimensional changes after home laundering.
- Bring reference materials and explain the target garment use.
- Confirm composition, yarn count, GSM, width, stretch direction and handfeel requirements.
- Ask what test reports are realistic before bulk approval.
- Discuss whether the item needs existing fabric, adjusted construction or new sample development.
With that preparation, a booth visit becomes a focused fabric-development discussion rather than a simple business-card exchange.
