In the current Autumn/Winter 2026/27 collection, the Hackenberg Textile Group focuses on innovations in the areas of ribbons, waistbands, textiles and labels. The four colour and theme worlds – Britaly, Bold, Streetwise, and Textured Luxury – reflect a broad range of trends in colours, designs and materials.
Britaly
Elegant – Classic – Timeless. Subtle beige gradations, rich brown tones and various shades of blue form the classic Italian colour palette for the Britaly theme. The designs range from checks, stripes, and paisleys to micro prints that closely resemble woven structures.



Bold
The focus is on clear lines, symmetrical shapes and minimal designs. In addition to geometric patterns, florals and paisleys also play a role. A vibrantly radiant colour scheme with shades like royal blue odea sporty green gives strength to the otherwise subtle prints.



Streetwise
Striking digital prints in vibrant colours such as magenta or neon gradients capture the essence of the Streetwise theme. Printed reflections and reflective yarns woven into ribbons echo the city lights at night, adding exciting details.



Textured Luxury
Textured Luxury showcases noble woven structures in trendy Italian colour combinations. A strong royal blue provides an extra-fresh accent. The designs range from graphic multicoloured patterns and paisleys to tonal structures that offer a new solid alternative. Tonal 3D wordings on ribbons look modern and can be perfectly combined.

MATERIA FUTURA – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
18. January 2026
Materia Futura is not proposing a new bio-material category, nor a finished commercial textile. What distinguishes the project is its design-led investigation into the emotional and aesthetic dimensions of bio-based materials, an area often sidelined in sustainability discourse.
THREADED PROTOCOLS – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
17. January 2026
Threaded Protocols is not a textile innovation in the commercial sense, nor a digital tool disguised as craft. What makes the work distinct is its material investigation into how computational logic originates in textile practice and what is lost when those logics are abstracted into opaque technological systems.
