ColorJet becomes platinum sponsor at ITMA 2019
From a net consumer of textile machinery to being a platinum sponsor of ITMA is a long way to come for the Indian textile machinery industry.
ITMA is the world’s leading showcase for textile and garment technology, including textile printing, and it provides the ideal platform for the industry to present a wide range of the latest technologies. ITMA 2015 featured 1,691 exhibitors from 46 countries, 95 supporting media from 19 countries and 1,23,000 buyers from 147 countries. Of these visitors, 21 per cent were from the printing and dyeing sectors.
The textile printing industry represents 30 billion sq m of material volume on an annual basis worldwide while global digital textile printing market was valued at Euro 1.17 billion in 2016 with growth forecast to reach Euro 2.42 billion in 2021. Digitally printed textile is growing at a steady annual rate of 25 per cent.
