ITMACH 2019 to be held from Dec 5-8
The third edition of ITMACH India will be held from December 5-8, 2019, in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, the most important hub of textile manufacturing in the country.
Organisers expect this to be a bigger show, with more than 500 exhibitors, compared to 350 exhibitors in the last edition in 2017. This time too, a lot of the latest technologies will be on display.
A number of important players in
the textile engineering industry have already signed up as exhibitors.
The Indian textile industry is going through a restructuring phase. Investments in spinning are expected to slow down for the next couple
of years. The decentralised weaving sector, which manufactures around 65-70 per cent of the fabric in the country, is upgrading its obsolete technologies. Processing continues
to remain a challenge for the industry, and zero liquid discharge is a solution for this polluting segment. Garmenting too needs to pick up, to cater to the growing domestic and global demand. Labour availability and costs are another obstacle to growth and profits of the industry.
Given this background, the industry will continue to invest in technologies that offer better quality, productivity, automation, sustainability. Moreover, with many states offering a number of incentives to the textile and apparel industry, investments in the right products and technologies will go up. An interesting time for the world’s textile technology suppliers to be
in India!
