TRADE FAIRS AND INTERNATIONALIZATION

LINEAPELLE

It is the most important international showcase dedicated to the global supply chain for fashion, luxury and design, held twice a year – in February and September – when it lands in Milan and takes over the halls of Fiera Milano Rho. It hosts the stands of the most advanced and inspiring producers of leather, accessories, components, synthetic materials, fabrics and patterns intended for the manufacture of footwear, leather goods, apparel, furniture and interior and outdoor design objects.

Each edition welcomes an average of around 25,000 visitors and 1,200 exhibitors from all over the world, positioning itself as a benchmark for an international community made up of 50,000 companies, 1 million employees and generating a turnover of 150 billion dollars.

During every edition of LINEAPELLE MILANO, the style trends developed by its Fashion Committee are presented.

LINEAPELLE NEW YORK

It is the trade show that has opened the exhibition season since 2001: in July for Autumn/Winter and in January for Spring/Summer. A catalyst for interest in the US market, LINEAPELLE NEW YORK hosts around 100 selected companies (tanneries; producers of accessories, components, synthetics and fabrics) from the main European countries.

It takes place at the Metropolitan Pavilion, in the Chelsea district, in the heart of Manhattan. In addition to the exhibition, it features seminars, fashion presentations and special projects promoting and communicating Made in Italy.

LINEAPELLE LONDON

A true boutique fair, LINEAPELLE LONDON is a one-day event held twice a year – in January and July – within the stimulating setting of the Ham Yard Hotel, in the heart of the City.

It offers a high-level opportunity for presentation and networking, enabling a highly selected group of companies to showcase their collections, services and new projects to an audience of British designers and stylists.

During LINEAPELLE LONDON, style seminars are held to present the trends developed by the LINEAPELLE Fashion Committee.

COLLECTIVE PARTICIPATION IN TRADE FAIRS

UNIC – Italian Tanneries – in collaboration with Lineapelle – offers its member companies the opportunity to join collective groups organised to support participation in trade fairs considered strategic for the internationalisation of the sector.

This is the case, for example, with APLF – Asia Pacific Leather Fair Hong Kong and TLF – Tokyo Leather Fair.

Furthermore, the global LINEAPELLE ecosystem extends into a wide range of presentations and promotional projects in major fashion-industry capitals around the world, including Paris, Seoul, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Dubai, Los Angeles, Antwerp and Berlin.
