Kind + Jugend 2008
11th to 14th September, Koelnmesse ,Germany
Published:  16 July, 2008

This is the largest international fair for children's furniture, safety seats, textiles, prams, hygiene products, toys and fashion for babies and toddlers. Its a big venue with everyone who is anyone exhibiting to the rest of Europe and the world, so its a great place to find out what the new trends will be six months down the line.

Already the organisers are predicting that Isofix child car seat systems will become standard as  seats with approval numbers ECE 44/01 and 44/02 are no longer permitted by legislation. As far as fabrics go skin-contact surfaces are very important as are use of technology in fabric so they are suitable for sweat absorption or dirt resistence. They expect prams are going  to get even smaller with more functional frames. Unnecessary extras will be seen less and less.The trend towards white or bright children's furniture, which is already evident this season, is continuing. In addition to solid natural wood in oiled, limed or bright stained variations, bamboo is really making its mark.You can find further information and services connected with Kind + Jugend at http://www.kindundjugend.de/
