The protagonists of the 65th edition of Filo are the yarns, fibers, and materials offered by the exhibiting companies. They are the fruit of painstaking research and passion, which at this edition of Filo has reached even higher levels of quality, offering visitors and buyers collections that stand out for their innovation, sustainability, and aesthetic contents
The Fiera Milano Rho venue allows for a rational and harmonious distribution of exhibition areas, making the visit to Filo more comprehensive and enjoyable. Innovation is also given greater space with the Made in Filo Area, showcasing the fabric collection created and produced by Filo from exhibitors’ yarns.
