For Terrot, the current fiscal year 2023 has not been an easy one so far. In addition to the generally poor economic situation, the company reports natural disasters, political uncertainties, as well as its own shortcomings, such as excessive payment delays, various major project postponements, crashes of the main production machine at its plant, to name a few, all of which have posed a serious threat to the company's existence.

Therefore, the company is even more pleased to be able to come to ITMA and show latest developments with the great support of their customers, suppliers, employees and brave agents.... 

Despite all the obstacles, they have continued to push forward with their latest developments that were to premiere at ITMA and the many projects that are designed to make the company more efficient, modernize and prepare for the needs of the future. New developments in the single and double jersey sector, consisting of highly efficient premium machines with outstanding performance, maintenance and operating cost KPIs, as well as general improvements to existing equipment have been realized in recent months. 

Together with its partner SMARTEX Terrot welcome visitors in hall 4 booth E104.

At ITMA they will display one of their blockbuster machines: A highly flexible and productive I3P 196 “8-lock“, interlock and fine rib machine with open width frame that has been much demanded above all in Turkey in the past years. After having become the standard for interlock with many of the reputable clients it is about to become also a success story in many other markets around the world.

The I3P 196 creates “8-lock“, interlock and modified structures like punto di roma, milano rib, piqué rodier and also racer mesh with maximum efficiency. Equipped with up to 4 needle tracks in cylinder cam and 2 needle tracks in dial cam the I3P 196 promises maximum flexibility and a wide range of pattern options.
