Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Deutsche Messe, organiser of DOMOTEX, the world’s leading brand for trade fairs for the carpet and flooring industry has signed an agreement with Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), one of world’s foremost purpose-built convention and exhibition centres, to organise DOMOTEX Middle East in Dubai between April 23 – 25.

“The construction, development, real estate and interiors sectors in the Middle East are continuously growing. Therefore, the demand for carpets and floorings is constantly growing and so is the market share of the Middle Eastern flooring industry,” explains Sonia Wedell-Castellano, Global Director of the DOMOTEX events worldwide. Based on a sales volume of 8.6 billion US dollars in 2022, the Middle Eastern flooring and carpet market is expected to reach around 14.55 billion US dollars by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.2%.
