LINEAPELLE and SIMAC TANNING TECH. Materials, components, and technology
The 102nd edition of LINEAPELLE will take place on Tuesday 19th, Wednesday 20th, and Thursday 21st, September 2023, in Milan.
The event will be held alongside other sector shows at the Fieramilano Rho exhibition center. It will occupy six pavilions, where exhibitors will focus their offerings on trends for the Winter 2024-2025 season, showcasing hides and skins, synthetics, fabrics, components, and accessories.
Among the exhibiting companies participating in the Italian supplier fair, representatives from Latin America, including countries like Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru, will be present, as informed by the organizers.
In each edition, LINEAPELLE complements its exhibition with parallel programming. On the one hand, the Trend Areas compile a set of samples from the exhibitors, thus exhibiting the most innovative materials and components that are trending.
Visitors also have the opportunity to access fashion-related knowledge through various conferences organized by the fair. Additionally, MIPEL Lab brings together prominent Italian leather goods manufacturers with brands from around the world.
The exhibition brings together leading Italian manufacturers of machinery, equipment, and systems with colleagues from other origins to form the largest international proposition of technology for footwear, manufactured goods and tanneries.
The event is characterized by a high degree of innovation and a wide variety of technological options presented. The most prestigious international brands are among the exhibitors.
Considering the positive results obtained in the previous 2022 edition, marked by optimism and renewed post-pandemic confidence, a significant turnout of industrialists and visitors from different regions of the world is expected for this occasion. Manufactured goods technology has entered a very dynamic period, where updates are essential to maintain competitiveness and efficiency.
In the previous September 2022 edition, more than 280 exhibitors participated, receiving over 4,000 visitors, representing a 57% increase compared to the same fair in 2021. Attendees came from 86 countries, including Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, India, Turkey, Mexico and Brazil. Concurrently, through the ITA/ICE agency, 16 countries were represented by institutions and buyers.
This year, ASSOMAC will also co-organize the UITIC Congress -dedicated to footwear technicians-, which will take place between September 19th and 22nd in Milan and Vigevano, under the motto "Moving towards sustainability through innovation".
The program will include visits to shoe and supplier factories, as well as institutions linked to the sector. There will be a tour of the SIMAC TANNING TECH and LINEAPELLE fair, while panels and conferences will discuss topics such as innovation, sustainability, digital transformation and human capital.
