On the Road with Trivantage®: Where We’ve Been and Where to Find Us Next


While our days at Trivantage are anchored in fulfilling your orders and rolling out new performance products, our absolute favorite moments involve connecting directly at industry trade shows and conferences.



Being out on the floor gives us a first-hand look at the real-world fabrication and business challenges professionals face daily, allowing us to source and deliver future-forward solutions that help your business grow.



Here is a look back at where we've been so far in 2026, and a sneak peek at where you can catch us in the fall.



International Window Coverings Expo



We kicked off the spring season by connecting with designers and fabrication peers in the window coverings space. Our discussions on the floor gave us incredible insight into what workrooms need to stay highly competitive as interior window fashions continue to evolve.



The Makers Meet



Designed to spark imagination and help custom fabricators elevate their craft, the second annual Makers Meet was a major highlight. We loved welcoming creators to the Sunbrella® plant in Anderson, South Carolina, for behind-the-scenes tours and meaningful community connections.



Furniture Manufacturing Expo



We headed to Charlotte, North Carolina, to put our specialized product selections in front of the region's top upholstery and manufacturing professionals. It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase our latest high-performance residential and commercial textiles.
