The World of DOMOTEX
Exhibitors and visitors from all over the world, four days of business, trends and lifestyle as well as plenty of opportunities for orders - that's what DOMOTEX offers at the start of the financial year. For a few days, Hanover will once again be the international center of the industry and the perfect place for initiating business and networking.
The world's leading trade fair DOMOTEX has been bringing the international flooring community together in Hanover since 1989. As DOMOTEX it brings together the entire world of carpets and floor coverings in all even-numbered years - from handmade oriental rugs and fine parquet to weaving machines and installation technology.
In the odd-numbered years, The Carpets & Rugs Edition presents the unique world of carpets. It is therefore not without reason that the guiding theme of DOMOTEX 2025 is "True Connections. Excellence in Design."
