The party supplies market is evolving. As we look towards 2026, retailers and wholesalers must adapt to changing consumer demands. Based on our factory orders and global inquiries, here are the top trends dominating the industry.
1. Eco-Friendly Materials (Felt & Paper)
Sustainability is no longer a niche; it's a requirement. We've seen a massive shift away from single-use plastics towards durable, reusable materials like Wool Felt and FSC-Certified Paper.
Our felt hats, for example, offer a premium texture that customers love, while being far more eco-conscious than traditional plastic alternatives.
2. Custom Holographic & Metallic Finishes
While "Eco" is big, "Flashy" is still in demand for festivals. The trend for 2026 is Holographic Cowboy Hats and metallic EVA masks. These items pop on social media (Instagram/TikTok), making them best-sellers for younger demographics.
