Meet WFS Cashmere at the 140th Canton Fair 2026: 16GG & 18GG Fine-Gauge Cashmere, Worsted Wool and Velvet-Feel Blend Knitwear OEM

If you are sourcing premium fine-gauge knitwear in China, WFS Cashmere welcomes you to meet our team at the 140th Canton Fair 2026, from October 31 to November 4, 2026, at Booth 5.1M04 in the China Import and Export Fair Complex, Guangzhou.

At this year’s fair, we will present our latest developments in 16GG and 18GG knitwear, with a focus on cashmere, worsted wool, wool-cashmere programs, and velvet-feel blend knitwear for brands, retailers, importers, and sourcing teams looking for refined OEM and ODM manufacturing solutions.

For buyers developing premium collections, this is not only an opportunity to review samples. It is also a practical chance to discuss yarn direction, gauge selection, sampling, MOQ, production planning, quality control, and long-term OEM cooperation with a manufacturer that works across 3GG to 18GG natural-fiber knitwear.

Event Information

Exhibition: The 140th Canton Fair 2026

Dates: October 31 – November 4, 2026

Booth: 5.1M04

Venue: China Import and Export Fair Complex, Guangzhou

Company: WFS Cashmere

Guangzhou Office: Room 1907B, Sanyuanli Center, No. 31 Jichang Road, Baiyun District, Guangzhou

If you plan to attend Canton Fair and are reviewing knitwear suppliers for upcoming seasonal collections, we invite you to visit our booth and discuss your sourcing needs in person.

You can also learn more about our company on the WFS Cashmere homepage and our About Us page.

Our Guangzhou Office for Follow-Up Meetings

For buyers who would like a more detailed sourcing discussion before or after the exhibition, WFS Cashmere can also arrange meetings at our Guangzhou office:

Room 1907B, Sanyuanli Center, No. 31 Jichang Road, Baiyun District, Guangzhou

This is especially useful for buyers who want to continue conversations about:

  • OEM or ODM development plans

  • 16GG and 18GG gauge selection

  • cashmere, worsted wool, and silk-blend yarn direction

  • velvet-feel blend development

  • sampling timelines and MOQ planning

  • seasonal production schedules

  • long-term cooperation after the fair

For many sourcing teams, trade fairs are the starting point. A follow-up meeting in Guangzhou can help move the conversation from general product interest to a more practical development plan.

What Buyers Will See at Our Booth

At Booth 5.1M04, WFS Cashmere will highlight product directions that are increasingly relevant to premium fashion brands and sourcing teams:

  • 16GG fine-gauge cashmere knitwear

  • 18GG fine-gauge worsted wool and cashmere-blend knitwear

  • Velvet-feel blend knitwear with refined handfeel and drape

  • Worsted wool-cashmere developments for premium essentials

  • Lightweight pullovers, cardigans, knit tops, dresses, and coordinated knit sets

  • OEM and ODM developments for private label and collection-based programs

These categories are particularly suitable for brands looking to balance luxury appearance, commercial wearability, and broader seasonal use.

For buyers reviewing comparable styles, our custom cashmere pullovers page provides an overview of our knitwear scope, including classic and contemporary silhouettes in cashmere, merino wool, silk blends, and other natural fibers.

Why 16GG and 18GG Matter for Today’s Premium Knitwear Market

In premium knitwear sourcing, gauge selection directly affects the way a garment looks, feels, fits, and performs in production.

16GG Knitwear: Refined, Versatile, Commercial

16GG knitwear offers a fine and elegant appearance while still maintaining enough body for everyday premium knitwear. It is widely used for:

  • crewneck sweaters

  • V-neck pullovers

  • lightweight turtlenecks

  • cardigans

  • knit polos

  • fitted women’s knitwear

  • elevated basics for autumn, winter, and transitional seasons

For many brands, 16GG provides a practical balance between softness, shape, wearability, and price positioning.

18GG Knitwear: Lighter, Cleaner, More Polished

18GG knitwear is often selected when a collection requires a lighter, smoother, and more sophisticated result. It is particularly suitable for:

  • refined lightweight sweaters

  • fine-gauge worsted wool styles

  • luxury layering pieces

  • elegant minimalist knitwear

  • business-casual knitwear

  • premium spring and trans-seasonal programs

Compared with lower gauges, 18GG usually requires more precise control over:

  • yarn quality and evenness

  • machine setting and knitting tension

  • garment measurements

  • recovery at neckline, cuff, and hem

  • wash performance and size consistency

  • overall bulk stability

This is why buyers sourcing 18GG styles often look beyond appearance alone and focus on whether a factory can deliver repeatable quality in bulk production, not just a good-looking sample.

Our Focus at Canton Fair: Fine-Gauge Cashmere, Worsted Wool and Velvet-Feel Blends

This year, one of our main exhibition priorities is showing how fine-gauge natural-fiber knitwear can support more versatile and commercially relevant collections.

Fine-Gauge Cashmere Programs

We continue to support brands developing premium cashmere knitwear with a focus on:

  • lightweight luxury

  • clean silhouettes

  • soft but stable handfeel

  • refined everyday styles

  • core programs for private label and brand collections

For premium buyers, fine-gauge cashmere is especially useful for building collections that go beyond heavy winter sweaters and move into layering, travel, and elevated essentials.

Worsted Wool and Wool-Cashmere Developments

Worsted wool remains one of the most important directions for modern fine-gauge knitwear because it creates a smoother, cleaner, and more tailored look. In 16GG and 18GG constructions, worsted wool and wool-cashmere blends are well suited for:

  • contemporary menswear and womenswear

  • officewear and smart-casual assortments

  • polished luxury basics

  • longer-selling seasonal programs

  • premium uniform or retail capsule developments

For sourcing teams, this category is especially attractive when they need a balance of refinement, structure, and broader market applicability.

Velvet-Feel Blend Knitwear

We are also highlighting velvet-feel blends and soft-touch luxury knitwear directions for brands looking for something more distinctive in handfeel and visual texture.

Depending on the yarn structure, finishing direction, and target product positioning, velvet-feel developments can offer:

  • softer surface touch

  • more fluid drape

  • richer visual depth

  • elevated luxury perception

  • a differentiated product story for fashion collections

For brands targeting quiet luxury, premium everyday dressing, or modern feminine knitwear, these developments can be especially valuable.

Why Buyers Are Paying More Attention to These Categories

Luxury and premium knitwear are no longer limited to winter-only products. Buyers today are looking for materials and constructions that support:

  • longer selling seasons

  • lighter layering programs

  • travel-ready wardrobes

  • versatile premium essentials

  • more balanced material strategies

  • better collection depth without unnecessary complexity

This is exactly why 16GG and 18GG fine-gauge knitwear, worsted wool-cashmere, and velvet-feel blends are receiving more attention. They allow brands to create knitwear with a more refined appearance, wider wearing occasions, and stronger commercial relevance across different markets.

Why Visit WFS Cashmere at Canton Fair Instead of Reviewing Online Only?

Online research is useful, but knitwear sourcing decisions often require more than product photos and quotations.

At the fair, buyers can:

  • feel the difference between 16GG and 18GG constructions directly

  • compare yarns and fiber blends in person

  • assess texture, drape, and finishing quality

  • discuss target pricing and material options more efficiently

  • review OEM feasibility before starting sampling

  • shorten communication cycles for new developments

  • build trust with a factory partner face to face

For categories like fine-gauge cashmere, worsted wool knitwear, and velvet-feel blends, physical review remains especially valuable because handfeel, density, and refinement are important parts of the buying decision.
