A strong and dynamic textile supply chain needs to be supported by an efficient and integrated trade fair system. This awareness has driven Filo and Lineapelle to seek closer collaboration: in February 2026, the two leading trade fairs in their respective sectors will not only share dates, as was the case for the fall editions, but also share exhibition space, offering visitors to both fairs a broader perspective on future developments in the textile industry.
Filo and Lineapelle are now strengthening their synergies, while each fair maintains its own identity and specificity. Naturally, the organization, management, and staff of the two fairs will remain separate. However, they will share the same dates – February 11-12, 2026 – and the same spaces in Hall 5 of Fiera Milano Rho.
Pier Francesco Corcione, CEO of Assoservizi Biella – the company organizing Filo – states: “The value of the textile sector stems from the strength of the supply chain: every step, every skill contributes to creating excellence. Filo’s synergy with Lineapelle, the leading trade fair for the leather and accessories sector, is essential for developing products that combine quality, creativity, and sustainability. Only through collaboration and innovation can we strengthen our manufacturing and successfully meet the challenges of global markets, continuing to offer solutions that interpret style and tradition with an eye to the future.”
Fulvia Bacchi, CEO of Lineapelle, adds: “In a still-overwhelming market environment, with logistical challenges stemming from the Olympics, Lineapelle and Filo have embraced the current buzzwords: aggregation and sharing. A synergy that can only benefit the market.”
The appointment is at Hall 5 of Fiera Milano Rho, on 11 and 12 February 2026, when the curtain will rise on the excellent proposals by two important sectors of textile manufacturing: the yarns and fibres of Filo65 and the leathers, fabrics, accessories and components of Lineapelle.
