Texprocess proves itself at a magnet for the international textile and garment industry, as almost three quarters of the available exhibition space has already been booked with nine months still to go before the fair begins.

All leading international companies will be making presentations at the leading international trade fair for processing textile and flexible materials that will be held concurrently with Techtextil from 4-7 May 2015 in Frankfurt.

In addition to the Source it sourcing platform, the fair will be supplemented by an extensive complementary programme of events, including IT@Texprocess.

Participants

“Texprocess is Europe’s only trade fair for the garment and textile-processing industry. There, top international players present all process stages along the textile value chain”, commented Detlef Braun, Member of the Executive Board of Messe Frankfurt.

The companies that have already registered for Texprocess 2015 include: Amann, Assyst, Barudan, Brother, Busche, Coats, Dürkopp Adler, Expert Systemtechnik, Ferd. Schmetz, FK Group, Global International, Gütermann, Happy Industrial Corporation, Hikary, Human Solutions, Hornung Indupress, KSL, Juki, Martin Group, Morgan Tecnica, Ozbilim Tekstil Makinalari, Pathfinder Australia, Pfaff, Veit, Vibemac, Tajima Industries, topcut-bullmer, Yamato. X’ian Typical and ZSK.

Source it

The next Texprocess will be distinguished by an unrivalled platform for garment manufacturers, Source it, which puts the spotlight on contract manufacturers and national associations for the production of apparel and fashions, especially those from Latin America, East and South Europe and Africa.

It is still possible to register for Texprocess and the Source it area. This also applies to IT@Texprocess, an area especially for IT-solution suppliers.

Positive signals

Elgar Straub, Director General of the VDMA Garment and Leather Technology, said: “As the conceptual partner of Texprocess, we see a great potential for the third edition of the fair. At present, the industry is being driven by subjects such as increasing digitalisation and networking – ‘Industry 4.0’ is the buzzword – and sustainable production processes. And these subjects will play an important role at Texprocess.”

“Our members are extremely well prepared to meet these challenges. In the first four months of this year, the garment and leather technology sector noted an increase of almost 20% in orders received. May was even better. Worldwide garment production is also climbing. Indeed, there were signs of this upswing at the last Texprocess.”
