The 23rd Keqiao Textile Expo opened in Shaoxing, East China's Zhejiang province on Oct 26.

The fair covers an exhibition area of over 26,000 square meters and has 1,315 standard booths for over 500 exhibitors.

Elements highlighting environmentally friendliness were featured at the expo, with many firms bringing their latest products that reflect this trend.

Professional live streamers were also invited to help promote textile products via online channels.

"Livestreaming makes communication between exhibitors and potential buyers from home and abroad possible and it greatly improves the efficiency," said Guo Mu, honorary president of the Zhejiang Association for Exhibition Industry.

Shaoxing is the world's most important production base for ties and socks, the largest production base for chemical fiber fabrics, printing and dyeing processing in Asia. Shaoxing's textile industry is a traditional, pillar industry that is important to people's livelihoods. 

The city has formed a relatively complete industrial chain covering upstream PTA, polyester, spinning, mid-stream weaving, dyeing and finishing, and downstream clothing and home textiles.
