The organisers of Domotex see their new concept for the trade fair as confirmation of its status as an international platform for the industry. From 19 to 22 January 2026, the trade fair presented itself for the first time as the Home of Flooring & Interior Finishing with more than 500 exhibitors from over 50 countries, "successfully bridging the gap between high-quality floor coverings and holistic solutions for interior design," according to the closing statement. It highlights a positive spirit of optimism, a high degree of internationality and strong participation by leading market players.
"Domotex has reinvented itself and shown us all that it pays off to boldly break new ground," says Arno Reich, Senior Vice President, Deutsche Messe AG. "Both exhibitors and visitors gave us consistently positive feedback. The trade fair clearly conveys a palpable new beginning and creates the perfect platform for bringing together the international flooring and interior design industry."
The trade fair has successfully evolved in terms of content and concept, "without losing its roots in flooring," as project manager Annette Levy says. "The addition of wall and ceiling products was exactly the right move and created new synergies that were clearly noticeable at the exhibition centre." Trade visitors from numerous countries particularly appreciated the expansion of the product groups and the positive response from retailers and tradespeople in the newly created Retailers Park.
With the expansion to Home of Flooring & Interior Finishing, Domotex aims to respond to changing market requirements and the growing need for holistically designed room concepts. That is why complementary product groups for walls, ceilings and interior design have been added to the established flooring range.
The next Domotex Home of Flooring & Interior Finishing will be held in Hanover from 17 to 20 January 2028.
