The fibre and yarn chapter at ITMA 2015 will feature a new sub-chapter on recycled fibres and yarns. The debut of the fibre and yarn chapter at ITMA 2011 was endorsed as an excellent platform by exhibitors. Almost all of the exhibitors surveyed at the event indicated they would return with a bigger participation.

Among the major brands who participated at ITMA 2011 are Rieter, Rhodia, Hermann Bühler AG and Lenzing. For ITMA 2015 more than 1,300 technology and raw material manufacturers have already booked space.

Serkan Gülmurat, Director of Foreign Trade Department at Kale Iplik says: "The introduction of the new sub-chapter on recycled fibres and yarns at ITMA 2015 will be a boon to textile and garment makers and manufacturers and professionals from other industrial sectors. It provides us with an excellent platform to showcase our recycled yarn which is Kale Iplik's commitment towards the planet as well as the global textile and garment industry."

And Martin Kägi, CEO Bühler Group says:"At Buhler, we are committed to produce high quality yarns through the highest environment standards in our production process. The sustainability theme for ITMA 2015 underscores the importance of the drive towards sustainability in the entire textile and garment value chain. We look forward to showcasing our latest innovations that promote sustainability at the show."

There are several reasons that ITMA 2015 will be an excellent business platform for fibre and yarn producers. The fair attracts an international pool of buyers sourcing for end to end solutions in the production of traditional textile and innovative textile materials. And ITMA presents a rare opportunity for fibre and yarn producers to work alongside machinery partners during live demonstrations.

Additionally ITMA is the only exhibition in the world that features the largest and most comprehensive range of textile and garment technology products and raw materials in one venue. And last but not least the textile machinery exhibtion is attended by global brands and apparel groups such as Adidas, Aeffe, Benetton, Burberry, Hugo Boss, Inditex, Levi's, Nike and Reebok.

ITMA 2027 gains strong momentum

In line with the theme "Co-creating the future of textiles", ITMA continues to strengthen its support for start-ups, recognising their role in driving innovation and shaping the future of textile and garment manufacturing. Through the Start-Up Valley, emerging companies gain access to a global marketplace where they can connect with industry leaders, potential partners, investors and customers.
