Heaptalk, Jakarta — The Indonesian Textile Association (API), in collaboration with Peraga Expo, will hold the Indonesia International Textile Sourcing and Apparel Production Technology Expo (Inatex) 2025 and the Indonesia Textile and Garment Expo (Indointertex) 2025 on April 15-17, 2025, covering an area of more than 24,000 sqm at the Jakarta International Expo (JIExpo).
This textile, garment, and related product exhibition is expected to serve as a strategic platform to strengthen competitiveness and drive national industry growth. The three-day event will feature over 500 companies from 12 countries. Visitors can explore the latest technologies, global trends, and innovative services in sustainability, digitalization, and energy efficiency within the textile and garment industries.
The Indonesian government projects the textile and garment industry to become one of the top three sectors driving the rapid development of the creative economy in 2025. The fashion revolution, focusing on environmentally friendly and sustainable materials, will be the most sought-after subcategory. In line with this, the global sustainable fabric market is expected to grow rapidly, particularly in the apparel, furniture, and medical industries. The market is projected to reach $72.7 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6% from 2024 to 2030.
According to the Indonesian Textile Association, in 2023, the sustainable fabric market was valued at $29.1 billion and is expected to continue growing, from $32.74 billion in 2024 to $74.8 billion in 2032, with a CAGR of 12.5% during the 2024-2032 period. Farhan Aqil Syauqi, General Secretary of the Indonesian Fiber and Filament Yarn Manufacturers Association, emphasized the importance of sustainable fashion in boosting the industry’s competitiveness.
“We will continue to highlight, and of course, we have concepts related to sustainability, the green industry, and halal textiles. This new concept will push for mandatory standards for the green industry so that the industry can remain competitive,” said Farhan in Central Jakarta (03/13).
