Automotive Interiors Expo 2026
an automotive surface in the making
We invite you to experience the intersection of craftsmanship and technology inside the KHALIL Trend Zone.
Throughout the exhibition, textile artist Elke Weisbarth will create a bespoke automotive interior surface live on site, inspired by the newly launched OQTA vehicle and crafted with a curated yarn collection from Aquafil: the ECONYL® Bespoke Collection.
More than a demonstration, this is a real time exploration of how material, craft and advanced tufting technology come together to shape the next generation of automotive interiors.
From creative expression to automotive application.

crafted live
Automotive interiors are often experienced as finished environments. With Signature Surfaces, Racemark invites visitors to witness the process.
Across three days, Elke Weisbarth will transform yarn into an expressive automotive surface in real time, revealing the gestures, textures and material choices that bring an interior concept to life.
Inspired by oqta
The live surface is inspired by OQTA, the newly launched automotive collectable by KHALIL Design, where luxury, performance and cultural identity converge.
With OQTA on site and Racemark products featured inside, visitors can experience the relationship between concept, craft and finished automotive application.
material innovation
In partnership with Aquafil, Racemark will showcase a custom yarn, from the ECONYL® Bespoke Collection developed for expressive automotive interior applications.
The collaboration highlights the role of advanced materials in defining texture, color, performance and identity within the vehicle interior.
